Melange Global Beats Club welcomes you to The Ultimate Balkan Groove /Folk/World Music with LELE LELE ORCHESTRA

Lele Lele (meaning ”Oh my!” in Bulgarian) is a one of a kind Bulgarian-Swedish band providing hot danceable Bulgarian and Roma grooves. The group has performed music from the Balkans since 2003 and is still exploring the endless possibilities through different collaborations. The band released their first studio album in 2009 (DartBird Music) which contains an exciting mix of Bulgarian and Indian music.

Odd meters, wild improvisations, daring arrangements, lyrical preludiums, dance performances and a feeling of pop are a few of the elements that are boiling together in Lele Lele Orchestras hot Bulgarian pot.The solid base is the Bulgarian folk music that the band delicately arranges for Bulgarian tamboura, gadulka, voices, wind instruments, tuba, and tupan drum. This year (2017) the bands new album "When the light goes" is out and got celebrated at Stallet in Stockholm 5 May 2017.

Line-up

Sonya Bakoeva – vocals & tupan

Mihail Dinchev – tambura, vocals & dance

Todor Bakoev – gadulka & gaida (bagpipe)

Stian Grimstad – tuba

Moa Danielson – tupan

Lele Lele Orchestra does an interactive live performance where the band often ends up in the audience and involves it in ring dancing and singing. Thus the group suits both a listening audience and a wild-Balkan-party.
