Coming from 5 differents countries -3 continents and one ocean- , the members of Caspian Hat Dance began on 2006, what today is one of the biggest names in the Netherlands. They play original and traditional gypsy music, klezmer music, misbehaved drunken village wedding music, southern italian pizzica, and pretty songs sung in Roma on Bolivian mountaintops.
The band has played nearly everywhere conceivable in amsterdam and has toured both western and eastern europe already a couple of times. They play in bars, squares, cafes, squats, and concert stages, in your living room and on your rooftop.
Caspian Hat Dance is a street band that plays in sold-out concert halls and a concert-hall band that plays in plazas and squatted buildings.
They sing for the kurdish-iranian daf, arabic darbuka, african dum-dum, violins, accordion, guitar, mandolin, eternal tambourine, double & electric bass, andean charango & quena, concert flute, gypsy water-can, and their own voices.
They sing in german, italian, roma, dutch, english, spanish, and some languages they made up themselves.
Nothing you can see or hear on this website compares to seeing them live.
