Orkestra del Sol Profile

Flamboyant, brassy and irresistibly euphoric - the riotous live shows of Edinburgh’s Orkestra del Sol are fast gaining them notoriety as Scotland’s answer to the celebratory wedding bands of Eastern Europe. The band cite influences including Balkan big names like Boban Markovic Orkestar, Mahala Rai Banda and Fanfare Ciocarlia, but also pay homage to Calypso and Mento, Brazilian Forro and Columbian Porro, plus The Specials, Tom Ze, Duke Ellington, Stephane Grapelli and Tom Waits. It is their imaginative and captivating stage show that truly sets Orkestra del Sol apart – bursting with anarchic humour, wildly skilful musical arrangements and a roguish sense of theatre, the band has hit upon an explosive combination. As a result, they’ve sold out venues and delighted festival audiences across Europe and as far afield as India and China.
