Balkan Beats
Their music reflects the balkanic influence, mixing together ska, pop, post punk, gipsy, rock, reggae, folk and last but not the least, the traditional music of „mother Russia”. They’ve named this world music mixture: „BALKAN POP SKA”.
The lyrics are linguistic combinations of English – Russian, Moldavian – Romanian , Gagauzian and Bulgarian, that send a musical message of social contrasts and human’s nature contradictions.
Popa Sapka performs on festivals, clubs and private parties, even in a theatre or penitentiary. They have been doing this successfully and they are not easy to stop!
