TO DO Tonight: Orkestar Kriminal Album Launch

orkestar criminal

If you like your music a little Yiddish, a little gypsy, a little bit criminal, and a lot crazy, check out the Orkestar Kriminal release of their new album Tummel. This eight piece band that plays music of the ’20s and ’30s (or at least, that sounds like its from that period) is fronted by Giselle Webber. Chances are you’ve heard her name before; she weaves her way in and out of Montreal’s music scene, reinventing herself each time. The new album has music from Moldova, Morocco, Greece, Ukraine, Poland, and ARgentina. The vinyl version contains three extra tracks. $10

Orkestar Kriminal’s album launch takes place March 27 at Divan Orange (4234 St Laurent). 8:30 p.m.
