Dagadana
Dagadana
The trio plays traditional folk melodies and their own compositions set to words of traditional songs, modern poetry and their own lyrics. Their full of humour concerts show that they make the music of such kind that makes both the listener and the performer happy. Full of warmth vocal lines sang often through voice processors, bold synthetic sounds, trance-like acoustic bass and children’s toys used as instruments is DAGADANA’S method to flood the listener with sounds that are never boring. This multicultural project will interest everybody who is open for the richness of Slavic soul – wild but mild at the same time.
