Gamelan DanAnda & Firetail ft. Ready New Gang (Brunswick Music Festival)

Get ready for an electrifying evening with Balinese gamelan orchestra, Gamelan DanAnda, and electro-jazz-fusion band, Firetail, combining bronze xylophones, bells, cymbals, drums, and gongs with Carnatic rhythms, driving percussion, and evocative melodies.

“A new–and thoroughly beguiling–musical language”, “wooden hammers dancing in perfect unison or forging intricate, interlocking patterns on shimmering metallophones, bamboo xylophones, gongs and double-headed drums”. The Age review of collaborative performance with jazz-fusion band Firetail.

“mind-boggling polyrhythmic avalanche of shifting pulses…This was a music fusion like no other; this was fusion on steroids…I cannot recommend this show highly enough.” BroadwayWorld review of Saudara Sound System at OzAsia Festival.

READY NEW GANG play traditional Gamelan Music of Balinese “Wayang Kulit” shadow puppetry expanded beyond its five-tone origins with double-bass from Scott Owen (The Living End), drum kit by David Williams (Augie March) plus special guests.
