Event description


Super Rats play classic ‘lautari’ music from the backstreets of Bucharest. Featuring the 145-string cimbalom, with violin, accordion and bass.
From diverse and colourful strands – Otto­man court music, raw Balkan peasant folk, the legend­ary inventive­ness of Roma (gypsy) music­ians, a hand­ful of tango and jazz – Super Rats weave a magic carpet to whisk you away to distant times and places, in a show full of pan­ache, humour and dedic­ation to the beauty in these charming­ly crook­ed melodies.

Band leader and Australia’s ‘chief cimb­alom nerd’ Tim Meyen studied with master trad­itional musicians in Romania for over a decade before assembling a hand-picked crew of rolled-gold Australian music­ians to form Super Rats. Together they careen through auth­entic muzică lăutarească in their own consum­mate style, sure to please curious ears.
