NYC’s Gogol Bordello firmly established themselves as a very special force at
festivals and in theatres worldwide and show no signs of slowing down. Secret
ingredient? High energy, high quality, and never not fun!
This pro-unit brings an unparalleled global punky party that is distilled into a
life-loving explosive show which converts first time goers into lifelong fans. With
a stunning knack for “I can’t get it out of my head songs” (Start Wearing Purple,
Wunderlust King, American Wedding ) it brings together fans of Nick Cave, Manu
Chao and Rancid alike. Impossible? You better believe it. Let their albums
produced by rock legends Rick Rubin and Steve Albini speak.
GB regularly shares stages with the likes of System of a Down, Queens of the
Stone Age, Rancid, Green Day, New Order, Primus, and are regular guests at
festivals worldwide (Coachella, Hellfest, Roskilde, Lalapalooza, Riot Fest, Sziget,
Slamdunk and more) and are constantly expanding their global following
through headlining tours. Their commitment to their unifying cultural mission is
the subject of the recent documentary “Scream of My Blood: A Gogol Bordello
Story” produced by VICENEWS 2023, and premiered at Tribeca Film Festival.
Lead singer and principal songwriter Eugene Hutz also befriended Hollywood
and appeared in several films alongside Stephen Graham, Elijah Wood, Vicky
McClure, and Richard E. Grant. Their undeniable authenticity allows them to
maneuver in and out of the mainstream without losing their edge, even when
collaborating with top pop stars like Madonna and Regina Spektor.
