Band Members

The Baghdaddies are a hardworking band whose tunes are well known to many, both on home turf and internationally. They are equally at home playing either on stage or the street, they gig extensively in the UK and Europe, combining venues with al fresco performances. Their audiences immediately respond with warm if not frenzied reaction before leaping up to dance.

Bookings have them perform at The Sage Music Centre Launch in Gateshead, The Royal Opera House - Covent Garden and in Italy, Poland, Switzerland and Spain. Formed in 1996 and hailing from Newcastle upon Tyne, England, they are fortunate to have played their anarchic melange of traditional European and world musical styles of all eras at many major events and festivals, and have appeared on radio and TV throughout Europe.

They have released four albums acclaimed for originality and uniqueness. The baghdaddies appeal continuously expands their dedicated and growing legion of followers and casual listeners alike. No matter what the preferred genre is, fans always find a special place for music they enjoy, demand and even love. The Baghdaddies are all that and more!

Now the release of their fourth album 'KATCHYAZAFTA' and the Baghdaddies look set to eclipse the success of their award winning 3rd CD 'Random Acts of Kindness',. An an uplifting evening of musical frolic and cavortment guaranteed. don't forget your dancing shoes! <

   About The Baghdaddies

Wild and infectious mix of Balkan brass, Middle Eastern flavours, Ska and Dance. Each member of the quintet is absurdly accomplished - and they all sing too, sometimes all at once. A Baghdaddies gig promotes a healthy increase in heart rate, inducing an irresistible urge to dance uncontrollably and smile benignly on your fellow man (and woman)

Fusion of rhythms and melodies plucked from around the world are guaranteed to raise your spirits! Festival favourites, The Baghdaddies play Balkan gypsy with Middle Eastern flavours, shades of klezmer and tango, jazz and reggae plus a touch of ska - all laced with funky dance grooves and blistering eastern brass harmonies.

Bolwerkfanfare





Mar 5 2009 10:15 AM




Op 10 januari 2009 werd de Gentse Bolwerkfanfare verwacht op een kerstboomverbranding in Wevelgem.

Ze is nooit komen opdagen en sindsdien is niks meer van haar vernomen.


Fans en organisatoren zijn de wanhoop nabij. De muziekwereld spreekt van een onrustwekkende verdwijning.

Als u iets gezien of gehoord heeft dat tot haar opsporing zou kunnen leiden, mail dan naar:

WAARISDEBOLWERKFANFARE@HOTMAIL.COM



Le 10 janvier 2009, la Bolwerkfanfare de Gand devait animer une crémation des sapins de Noël à Wevelgem (B).

La fanfare n’y est jamais arrivée et personne ne l’a plus vue depuis ce jour là.


Les admirateurs et les organisateurs des événements succombent au désespoir. L’industrie de la musique parle d’une disparition inquiétante.

Toute personne susceptible de fournir des informations est priée de nous envoyer un e-mail:

WAARISDEBOLWERKFANFARE@HOTMAIL.COM



January 10, 2009, the Bolwerkfanfare from Ghent was expected to attend a Christmas Tree Incineration in Wevelgem (B).

The band never showed up and nobody has seen her again ever since.


Fans and concert organizers are on the verge of despair. The music industry speaks of a disturbing disappearance.

If you have any information about the whereabouts of the Bolwerkfanfare, please send an e-mail to:
