Kumpania Algazarra

Kumpania Algazarra were born in 2004 in Sintra, like some sort of anti-routine brigade, inspired by the muses of festivity, in a exciting dialogue between music and animation, creating a framework for dancing and blissfullness. Their seeds planted in the streets, stage of their first concerts, flourished, starting to give joy in the most diverse ocasions and situations like streets, gardens, squares, stages, alternative spaces, animations, weaddings, benefit causes, parties and festivals. In 2008 they release their first album, that aspects all this journey. Their music is nomad, multilingual and universal. They\'re influened by a kaleidoscopic sonority: Balkan furor, Arabic drifting, Latin warmth, Afro-beat refinement and explosions of Klezmer and Ska. The result of this variety of influences, brought together by a unique and original fusion process, is an energetic and contagious moment. Their lyris invite to a reflection about the inhuman state of the world and stimulate individual liberation. This musical project brings freshness and enriches the world music made in portugal, extinguishing geographical and age limits. THE SHOW ITINERANT BAND Carrying the heritage of European fanfare, KUMPANIA ALGAZARRA flies over the new and the old continent, bringing nearer different ways of being, in life and in music. It´s a show made from melting sounds of folk, appropriate to street events, or to enliven acoustic spaces. STAGE With a more complex and full-bodied instrumental formation, like a good wine, KUMPANIA ALGAZARRA go on stage ready to fire up the audience and shake the ground. Genuine in fusion, vigorous in their lyrics, with their instrumental lineup producing vibrant melodies, they make their shows unforgettable moments of festive celebration. Freedom is an attitude.
