It was great to finally play at the Bali Spirit Festival where the joyful, community essence of the orchestra matched the vibe of this magical gathering.
The Experience:
The venue was decorated like a rainforest wonderland and we decided to get the party started by walking through the crowd to get to the stage.
The crowd felt the energy of this cultural connection with the band performing ‘Escher”, a song written for the orchestra by bandleader Nicky bomba and Punnu. The unmistakable Indian influence with the joyous energy of Ska was a show stopper.
The celebration of explosive horn lines, drum solos, random dance moves, crowd chanting along with the big band sound in this tropical setting was a pleasure to experience. We’d like to thank all the people that helped make this happen.
Bali …. we love you!
