Banda Entopica comes from Greece - more precisely from Thessaloniki, where the members met and founded the band.
All the musicians have experience from other bands and musical genres. Together, however, they create a unique blend of traditional and modern Balkan music - with clarinet, saxophone, accordion and daouli (traditional drum).
Their live performances are a real experience - and that's exactly what made the audience so enthusiastic right from the start.
The sounds from Macedonia, Thrace, Epirus and the entire Balkan region merge into an exciting mix of dance-like, sometimes ecstatic rhythms - with songs from different regions, but also with their own compositions, which create a great atmosphere wherever they go.the way they interpret traditional music and create an almost Dionysian atmosphere makes Banda Entopica a much sought-after act at small and large festivals.
The band consists of:
- Christos Kiriazis(clarinet / saxophone)
- Argyris Karagounis (trumpet)
- Nikos Foutakis (accordion)
- Billy Maleganos (percussion) and
- Konstantina Kioulou (vocals)
- Giannis Gountanos(sound designer)
