Drawing from Macedonia, Serbia, Romania, and Turkey, their sound is both soulful and propulsive, weaving traditional ornamentation with bold improvisation and danceable grooves. At the heart of the ensemble is a commitment to keeping the flame of Balkan Roma music alive — not through imitation, but through respectful adaptation rooted in community, musicianship, and joy. The group features multilingual vocalist **Willa Roberts**, trumpet stylists **Char Rothschild** and **Bruce Lettelier**, trombonist **Bryant Lettelier**, tubaist **Alan Kapulski**, and percussionists **Nick Kunz** and **Max Kluger-Bell**.
