What to say about Balkan Beat Box… When I originally talked about the show, I stole a 9:30 Club insider’s words:
“I am urging you all to trust me and buy tickets for this SOON! If you like Thievery Corporation you will love them. If you like Gogol Bordello, this guy [Ori Kaplan] was an original member in their band. Think big production salsa and Arabic sounds. Sold out last year and was awwwesome.”
And here I go again because this band is too hot for me to express in more than unladylike moans:
“An All-World Techno Explosion.” —NPR
“…an eclectic approach to music making helps push the BBB philosophy of a planet without borders where all share.” —BBC Radio 3
“…this is the dance party of the new millennium.” —Paste
“This cross-cultural crew of New York musicians… is guaranteed to propel any party into a hedonistic, sweaty mess.” —Entertainment Weekly
BBB comes to 9:30 Club this Fri (4/29) for a late show (11:00pm doors), and we have a chance for you to win a pair of tickets to “the dance party of the new millennium.”
To win the tickets, just tell us the song that turns you into a hedonistic, sweaty mess.
The winner will be selected at noon on Wed (4/27).
