Forty Thieves Orkestar
A dastardly infusion of eastern melodies and sultry London beats. Forty Thieves Orkestar create a unique sound both in their recorded material and in their vibrant gigs. Their influences range from Balkan Gypsy music, Klezmer, and Belly dancing music, to Hip Hop, King Tubby style Reggae and the laid back bar grooves of Kruder and Dorfmeister. Brass, clarinet, violins, accordion, oud and percussion interweave with earthy samples, crisp beats, evocative atmospheric sounds, and studio trickery.
Forty Thieves Orkestar started as a studio project in 2004 and has recently evolved into a fully fledged live act with exciting interaction between talented musicians and technology.
Over the past year they have played venues such as Cargo, Momos, Notting Hill Arts Club and Darbucka in London, and have played various festivals including Glastonbury (on the Lost Vagueness Stage).
This summer they have played many festivals, many of them around London, and they appeared at this year’s Bestival (in the Isle of Wight)
