Global

A euphoric ska hip hop satire on Europe's obsession with immigration, by two of the leading voices on the Gypsy scene, Lemez Lovas and Yuriy Gurzhy.

The music has the beautiful Eastern European melodies and pop choruses, that made Oi Va Voi so well known, ( lemez is a founder member of Oi Va Voi ) plus the heavy dance floor, ska beat that have made Rotfront one of the most in-demand live bands around.

But the real star of the show are the songs themselves which show Lemez to be one of the most insightful, funny songwriters on the world music scene. With lyrics that take on Russian bride agencies ('A Modern Matchmaker'), marrying strangers for documents ('Schengen Visa Wedding'), illicit, underage love ('Um Bye Bye') and the traumas of getting rich quick ('If I Wasn't Such A Poor Man').

The smash live shows are performed by an allstar UK/Ukrainian/German/Italian/Israeli band, including Brixton dub maestro Andrea Terrano (Twinkle, Mad Professor), in-demand soul vocalist Maiya James (Mark De Clive Lowe, Phil Asher,Kyoto Jazz Massive) and blues punk bassist Paul Tkachenko (Hey Negrita).
