Vagabond Opera

The Washington Post calls them "a band of ceaseless charisma... impeccable musicianship and more than a little touch of both the naughty and exotic." Singing in 15 languages, the six-piece Bohemian neo-cabaret gypsy rock ensemble plays a combo of tango, Klezmer, rock, Arab music, Parisian hot jazz, and, yes, opera. They mix their genre-defying original tunes with covers by Jacques Brel, Tom Waits, Raymond Scott, and Edith Piaf.
