Buffo's Wake bring their avalanche of accordions, violins, horns and a bucket full of Gypsy gusto to Jamboree, waltzing, tango-ing, moshing and kolo'ing their way through Eastern European, Balkan and Russian folk, punk rock and cabaret. In support, Mazaika will ignite the stage with Gypsy fire, tango passion, operatic melodrama and classical virtuosity, plus some hot club and hillbilly mayhem!

Buffo's Wake - "Intriguing violins and erratic accordions, both utterly besmirched with wonderfully gloomy undertones and lingering vocals" - Stuart Mason, Geeks.co.uk

Mazaika - Known for their dazzling virtuosity, intoxicating passion and spontaneous theatricality and humour, Mazaika will transport us from the fairytale Russian Steppe to the flickering Romany campfire, the elegance of the Concert Hall to the glitter of The Moulin Rouge. The duo, made up of Igor Outkine on vocals, accordion and his mind-blowing, genre-defying midi accordion, and the versatile and virtuosic violinist Sarah Harrison, who also brings her vocal talents to the proceedings and plays a mean Russian Domra, have spent two decades enchanting audiences from the Cadogan Hall to the Crazy Coqs, Glastonbury to The Green Note. Expect a unique, humorous and uplifting take on Russian Folk and Gypsy, Classical, Opera, Tango, Gypsy Jazz, Latin, Italian, French Chanson, Balkan Beat, Klezmer and evocative original material inspired by all of the above.
