Gogol Bordello 20th Anniversary Tour – Music Madness Magazine

When asked to explain the music of Gogol Bordello, one’s response usually begins with something similar to, “You have to see them to understand what they are about”. Well, the world’s premier gypsy punk band will be hitting the road in the US to celebrate their 20^th anniversary so now you’ll have the chance to see them for yourself.

Gogol Bordello is a band that brings many styles of music into one. They mix a punk rock energy and stage presence with rock and Eastern European / gypsy music like no other band can. Their stage shows are full on high energy that leaves the viewer wondering how they can keep up their frenzied pace. Their instrumentation is like few you will see in a venue that houses rock shows but it fits their music to a “T”. A violin, washboards, a marching band bass drum along with the standard instruments for a rock band bring forth a cacophony of sound that compels one to dance, making it hard to stand still at their shows.

In their 20 years, they have released 7 highly acclaimed albums full of non-stop high energy music. From their 1999 release, Voi-La Intruder to 2017’s Seekers and Finders, it has been a non-stop run of enthusiastic gypsy punk music. One might think their music would get repetitive after all these years but that is certainly not the case. Their latest release is certainly Eastern European influenced but there are elements of Latin music as well. With members of the band hailing from at least six different countries, they incorporate a bit of everything from around the world and keep things fresh and exciting!

If you’ve yet to see this brilliant band live, do yourself a favor and find a date near you and go! If you’ve already seen them perform, you know not to miss this anniversary event.
