"Brilliant... like The Ukrainians meet klezmer"
— Genevieve Tudor, BBC Radio Shropshire
"Love the music..."
Rich compelling melodies and tight driving rhythm, Flatworld play an eclectic mix of music from Eastern Europe and beyond.
We take tunes and songs from Eastern European folk traditions (and elsewhere) and present them in a lively and accessible form — audiences are often dancing by the end of our show.
The line-up:
- Olly Blanchflower — double bass
- Rachel Bridgen — oboe
- Garry Low — drums, percussion
- Neil Poulter — guitars, vocal
- Kimberly Turnbull — violin, vocal
