Flying Balalaika Brothers Russian, Roma Gypsy, Ukrainian and foot stomping original songs get hands clapping and feet dancing in a crazy blend of rock, bluegrass and traditional folk music from around the world. Now front man for the Flying Balalaika Brothers, Zhenya Rock was a founding member of the Red Elvises and penned some of their biggest hits including "Red Lips Red Eyes Red Stockings," the full soundtrack for Six String Samarai and the full album "Bedroom Boogie." William Michael Smith recently wrote in the Houston Press, "Austin's Flying Balalaika Brothers are to Russian folk music what Béla Fleck is to bluegrass: Outside-the-box, no-boundaries, take-no-prisoners innovators. The FBBs combine jaw-dropping virtuosity with a masterful sense of mixing up genres ranging from rock to Russian folk to bluegrass; if that sounds weird, it's also cool as hell." $5 Cover www.youtube.com www.russiafbb.com www.houstonpress.com |

Flying Balalaika Brothers Russian, Roma Gypsy, Ukrainian and foot stomping original songs get hands clapping and feet dancing in a crazy blend of rock, bluegrass and traditional folk music from around the world. Now front man for the Flying Balalaika Brothers, Zhenya Rock was a founding member of the Red Elvises and penned some of their biggest hits including "Red Lips Red Eyes Red Stockings," the full soundtrack for Six String Samarai and the full album "Bedroom Boogie." William Michael Smith recently wrote in the Houston Press, "Austin's Flying Balalaika Brothers are to Russian folk music what Béla Fleck is to bluegrass: Outside-the-box, no-boundaries, take-no-prisoners innovators. The FBBs combine jaw-dropping virtuosity with a masterful sense of mixing up genres ranging from rock to Russian folk to bluegrass; if that sounds weird, it's also cool as hell." $5 Cover www.youtube.com www.russiafbb.com www.houstonpress.com |
