Babylon Circus - Mel 10 Mar
- Event Has Already Passed The event you are trying to view has already passed
Lyon based Babylon Circus is music laced with ska, gypsy, rock, vaudevillian antics, dancehall & reggae. Their first Australian East Coast tour in 2008 saw this 9 piece band sell every show out, with audiences screaming for more.
A true musical menagerie, 9-piece big band Babylon Circus, have notched up over 900 concerts in 30 countries and built up a worldwide following with their electric live shows and addictive albums.
As befits a band with their name, their exploits include police chases, beatings and imprisonment in Irish jails, bathtub vodka, double concussions and hospitalisation in Russia and Muslim carnival processions in Syria. They have to be seen to be understood.
“Mix Django Reinhardt with Jacques Brel, add a little Gogol Bordello and you’ll come close to what Babylon Circus sounds like” (Detroit News, USA)
