The band are a varying ensemble of some incredible musicians and together, this inventive three-seven piece ensemble create the atmosphere of being in Turkey one moment, and South America the next, carrying the audience along with them, leaving them moved and inspired. The band draws their sound from extensive travels and collaborations. Their music beats with a Latin heart, but is peppered with Eastern and Central European influences and languages. Their material is largely original work written by Smith, drawing on traditional and contemporary sounds from Chile, Cuba, Mexico, Argentina, Turkey and France, amongst others. They irresistibly sweep audiences along on their musical journey, with stirring laments that transfix the room, through to energetic upbeat tunes that bring the crowd to its feet in dance cheering for more. They have recently returned from a six month tour of South America, Turkey, Bulgaria, France, Spain, Croatia and Serbia, where they gained a strong and dedicated following. These travels have added new influences to their constantly evolving sound, with more gypsy and European folk sounds recognisable in new material. We are not Flamenco, we have Spanish influences, mainly Latin American.
