A Friday night of riotous folk at Jamboree with the brilliant Ushti Baba, fusing hypnotic transEuropean melodies with modern dance rhythms. Expect heavy beatbox roots, wild fiddles and a thrilling musical journey from familiar lands to the beyond! The event is part of the 2025 Bloomsbury Festival!
The Bristol-based band pay warm tribute to their trad folk roots whilst delivering a fierce fresh perspective that consistently captivates crowds. They have been tearing up venues and festivals at home and abroad since 2013. The band's EP 'A Class Issue' was released in January 2020, featuring five tracks of unique acoustic rave featuring ghost ships, ancient cosmology and forgotten popes, with influences from klezmer, sea shanties, slip jigs and beyond.
Ushti Baba
Banging out stomping Balkan beats, heart wrenching Celtic melodies to live Jungle/DnB/Dupstep beatbox. Gypsy Jungle Turbo Folkstep, raucous foot stomping good times! Formed in November 2012, now an 8 piece band comprising of Sparrow Middleton, Jack Salt, Samuel MacDougall, Ursula 'Beastly' Billington, Berry Garnet, Hen-rah Edmonds, Sam G and Simon von Alexander. Early 2013 saw a jam-packed string of raucous performances around Bristol, and now the Babas are in full festival swing - you can catch them at a festival pretty much every weekend this summer!
