Flatworld – “Live & Local” in Concert

Vibrant world music from all points East!

Here at Baslow Village Hall we’re excited to bring you Flatworld live in concert on Saturday 28th September.

Rachel, Jerry, Garry, Neil and Kimberly are an exciting 5 piece band playing an eclectic mix of music from Eastern Europe, Ukraine and beyond.

Oboe, double bass, drums, percussion, violin and guitar combine with compelling vocals for distinctive groove-laden melodies. The band give the folk tunes of Eastern Europe a fresh modern twist that’ll have you tapping your feet and whistling all the way home.

Formed in 2001, this uplifting folk group have geared the stages of Glastonbury, the Hay Literature Festival and other significant events over the years.

The band say “We take tunes and songs from Eastern European folk traditions (and elsewhere) and present them in a lively and accessible form — audiences are often dancing by the end of our show.”

“Brilliant… like The Ukrainians meet klezmer” — Genevieve Tudor, BBC Radio Shropshire
