专辑简介

Led by Bulgarian-born performer-composer Milen Kirov, Orkestar MÉZÉ has established itself as a brass powerhouse in a short period of time. Since 2011 this 11-piece ensemble has gathered a large following through their raucous, joyous live shows where fans of all ages and walks of life dance to the band’s original high-energy groovy sound with a powerful 6-piece horn section, mixing classic American funk and soul with fiery traditional Bulgarian and Balkan odd rhythms and slippery modal melodies. The members of the band hail from Bulgaria, Italy, Turkey, New Zealand, Canada, and the US and this diversity is evident in their unique style they branded "peasant funk", which is sure to make you dance uncontrollably.

The band’s debut album "Peasant Funk" was released on November 11, 2011 to rave reviews by critics and audiences on both sides of the Atlantic. Online and print media have enthusiastically embraced the record calling it "a magician's hat that you can reach into and pull out anything your heart desires" and "a musical concoction that is equally appetizing to the refined music connoisseur and to the enthusiastic casual listener". Orkestar MÉZÉ released the first single from their upcoming second album “Love Revolution (feat. Ellis Hall)” in December, 2014 and since then, the song has been picked up by radio stations in the US, England, Germany, Greece, New Zealand, and Bulgaria. Their eagerly anticipated sophomore record will be released on June 16, 2015 by Luta Rakia Music.
