Trans-Siberian March Band

Friday night at Jamboree with Balkan brass party-starters the Trans-Siberian March Band - a colourful explosion of flamboyant, high-octane performances and musical miscellany! Expect riotous Balkan, Gypsy and Turkish tunes, up-tempo Russian drinking songs and even upper-tempo Klezmer, with a hint of hip hop and Latin for good measure!

The band are a fearsome blend of brass, reeds, percussion, guitar and vocals. Highlights from their strange and wonderful history include shows at Glastonbury, Bestival, WOMAD, Royal Albert Hall, Kensington Palace and more, as well as recording at Abbey Road and Air Studios. They have recently returned from a short tour to France for Les Fanfaronnades Festival, where they played with nearly 100 other brass bands from around Europe.
