The Baghdaddies | ja

The Baghdaddies have, quite aptly, been described as "an eclectic mish-mash of musical merriment, an ideal accompaniment to dancing, drinking, partying and shopping." (baghdaddies.com)

Since forming in 1996, this 5-piece band based in Newcastle-upon-Tyne have trod the boards of many a village hall, street, and festival stage everywhere from the 'Toon' itself to Poland, Switzerland, and Threlkeld.

With each member highly proficient on his instrument, there's not a guitar, bass, drum, trumpet, or saxaphone solo that won't encourage even the shyest from wiggling their hips to this 'melange' of klezmer, gypsy brass, balkan, reggae, ska, traditional folk, Geordie influenced, and nothing short of infectious music available in 4 refreshing disc-shaped installments.
