Kick off JMW 2019 with music of the Gypsies, Arabs and Jews! Join David Buchbinder, Roula Said, and their JUNO-nominated high-energy band on a journey through Spain to Iraq, Serbia to Yemen, presented with a funked-up downtown Toronto vibe. They tease and illuminate the connections among these related cultures, delivering the music with moving vocals, a strong groove and virtuosic playing. It’s an international party and you’re invited!
