The music of Luminescent Orchestrii is described as “Romanian gypsy melodies, punk frenzy, salty tangos, hard-rocking klezmer, haunting Balkan harmony, hip-hop beats and Appalachian fiddle, all eaten and spit out by two violins, resophonic guitar, bullhorn harmonica and bass.” Watch the video above from Mehanata: Bulgarian Bar to see these words come to life. While technically acoustic, the vibe is positively electric and more than a little intoxicating. Don’t miss the band’s performance with Frank London’s Klezmer Brass Allstars and Curtis Eller (NYC’s angriest yodelling banjo player) at Mo Pitkins House of Satisfaction this Friday, October 19 in a show called “Brass & Strings Attack!” presented by Makor Music.
