Bio
he Band Skorba was formed in 2006 with a single purpose in mind: to represent in a fresh and unique way the cultural history of the Maltese archipelago through songs written in Maltese. Transcultural Australia at it's best.Stellar original compositions about the history of the Maltese archipelago, it's ancient and more modern times.Exotic, entrancing and moving."I first encountered the passionate and remarkable sound of Skorba at he opening of the 2007 National Folk Festival in Canberra. The group transcends typical musical boundaries, and seemed to right inside me - extremely moving melodies, hypnotic rhythms and a doorway into not just the multi-faceted culture of Malta but a timeless and far reaching musical tapestry" - James Fagan.
