Alright, the weather’s getting better, and everyone is tired of moving slow. Spring is right around the corner, so why not kick it off with some of the most optimistic and energetic music out there?
Israeli-American happy machine Balkan Beat Box is bringing their unique brand of dance pop to the 9:30 Club on March 19th. They’ll be supported by equally fun Delhi 2 Dublin, so you know your night will be soundtracked with good vibes. We’ve got some tickets to give away for a few lucky fans, so why not enter for the chance to have a great time?
If you’re looking for something unique in DC, this is a damn good place to start. Balkan Beat Box is a three-piece that makes upbeat music that samples techniques and styles from the world over, for a special blend of eclectic dance music.
Since their self-titled debut in 2005, the Beatbox has conveyed their eclectic taste of traditional world music through a dancey, Mediterranean filter. Their most recent release, 2012’s Give, showcases the band’s insatiable drive to make diverse music that establishes common ground between all different kinds of people.
So, how can you be so lucky as to get a hold of tickets yourself? It’s simple!
In the comments below, tell us your favorite artist that makes music that was influenced from all over the world. Since I was obsessed with Fat Cat Records’ catalog in my teens, I’m going to have to go with Mice Parade.
The winner will be chosen at noon on Monday, March 18. Tickets are still available.
