About
Gogol Bordello's recent Tiny Desk concert has been described as the most rollicking and insane performance in the series' history. Known for their gypsy punk circus live shows, the band brought their electrifying energy to NPR Music offices, with frontman Eugene Hutz even dancing on desks during the performance. Gogol Bordello, formed in 1999 in the Lower East Side of Manhattan, blends Romani and Ukrainian music with punk and dub elements, incorporating instruments like accordion, violin, and saxophone.
Highlighted in films like "Everything Is Illuminated," where Hutz co-starred with Elijah Wood, Gogol Bordello's eclectic sound has gained widespread recognition. The band's contribution to the film's score with "Start Wearing Purple" and featuring in the Coca-Cola Euro 2012 campaign with "Let's Get Crazy" showcase their diverse musical style and influences. With their theatrical stage presence and relentless touring, Gogol Bordello continues to captivate audiences with their unique fusion of genres.
