Harris Brothers Brass Band 2/3!

Thanks to everyone who came out for St. Anyway - man did we have a crazy awesome time!

Bring your dancing shoes again this week for the Harris Brothers Brass Band! Whether you're circle dancing or just rockin out in the middle to their fantastic gypsy Balkan grooves, you'll have an awesome time.

The Harris Brothers' Band plays Balkan Music heavily influenced by the Roma (Gypsy) style brass bands of South-eastern Europe: Serbia, Bulgaria, Macedonia, and Northern Greece. The band's lean, mobile style recreates the authentic, intimate experience of dancing to roving Roma musicians. The Harris Brothers, Laine and Drew, have their roots in numerous bands throughout the region, including Zlatne Uste, Gypsy Cab, Zurli Drustvo, Bez Granica, and the Subteraneans. Both have traveled and played music throughout the Balkans and performed at the Dragachevo Brass Festival in Gucha, Serbia. Helen Marx, percussion, also plays in the band Druzina.

Get your brass to BAR on Wednesday and dance it up...
