“Do they live up to all the hype they’ve received? Hell, yes! Are they one of the best bands in the world at the moment? Without a shred of doubt.” — Folk Roots
“The band has a few peers in contemporary world music” — The New Yorker
“A triumph, and an extraordinary, exhilarating noise” — The Guardian
“it was a whirlwind.” — The New York Times
Italy’s fascinating dichotomy of tradition and modernity come together in the music of Canzoniere Grecanico Salentino. The seven piece band and dancer are the leading exponents in a new wave of young performers re-inventing Southern Italy’s Pizzica musical and dance traditions for today’s global audience.
