Malaka Hostel (Freiburg) // DJ IVO

In the organizer's words:

Malaka Hostel (Freiburg) // DJ IVO

Ska Polka Balkan-Beats Gipsy-Swing // Mestize Reggae

When Malaka Hostel perform, they playfully tear down the invisible wall between band and audience.

They sing in Spanish, German, Czech or English. Folklore, whether from the Balkans or the Andes, finds its place - carried by grooving beats, while the brass section consisting of trumpets and harmonica bubbles away. Ska, polka, Balkan beats and rock riffs come together just as well as gipsy swing, folk or Greek rebetiko.

With their new album "Gogo Vago", the band puts the southwest on the musical map of the republic. The title "Gogo Vago" is an invitation to all vagabonds of the universe to set out, experience something new, share it with others and illustrates where the inspiration and diversity of this colorful troupe come from. Malaka Hostel build bridges, unite entire continents and juggle different genres with ease within one song.
