presented by THE MUSIC LOUNGE & CHAIKA – Fri 28 June
June 15, 2019
Described as “spine-tingling” (Rhythms) and “extraordinary” (Fine Music FM), Chaika create cinematic genre-blending music inspired by Balkan vibrancy, Turkish markets, Celtic stories, and Australia’s own stunning landscapes.
On Friday 28 June Chaika will be performing at The Music Lounge as part of their ‘Arrow’ Tour, to celebrate the release of their third highly anticipated album, recorded and produced by ARIA award-winning team Bob Scott and Llew Kiek.
Chaika’s musicians have worked with an impressive roster including Nicky Bomba, Monsieur Camembert, Australian Brandenburg Orchestra, Mara! & The Martenitsa Choir, The Song Company, Baby et Lulu, Marais Ensemble, Elysian Fields, The London Bulgarian Choir and The Renaissance Players.
At home, wherever appreciative ears assemble – from roots and folk festivals to the world-class environs of Sydney’s City Recital Hall – Chaika surprise, thrill and move the unsuspecting listener.
Decidedly “outside the norm” (Timber & Steel) Chaika traverse another age, journeying an unidentifiable era and landscape, in a manner simply referred to by The Australian as “enchanting.”
“A rich depth… such a young and talented group of musicians.” – Eastside Radio
