NEWS: 5'NIZZA I GOGOL BORDELLO JUŻ W CZERWCU W PROGRESJI!

23 CZERWCA | Main Stage

5’NIZZA [UKRAINA]

Progresja Music Zone ma zaszczyt zaprosić na koncert legendarnego zespołu 5’Nizza, który odbędzie się 23. czerwca.

5’Nizza, to legendarny ukraiński duet, znany z hitów takich, jak Soldat czy Jamayka. Po zawieszeniu swojej aktywności na kilka lat Ukraińcy postanowili się reaktywować ku radości milionów fanów na świecie i pierwszy raz od ponad 9 lat odwiedzą Warszawę!

Zespół tworzy eklektyczną mieszankę stylów, łącząc reggae, ragga, hip hop i beatbox, a także muzykę kabaretową, jazzową, a nawet punkrockową. W opinii krytyków i publiczności ich twórczość zajmuje wysokie miejsce wśród takich sław gatunku jak Bob Marley (ich cover piosenki Jammin’ uważany jest przez wielu za najlepszy cover piosenki Boba Marleya), czy Manu Chao.
Dokładnie 4 marca 2015 świat obiegła informacja, że grupa podjęła decyzję o reaktywacji, a już 21 kwietnia na kanale YouTube grupy został opublikowany klip z nową piosenką “I Believe In You”.

O 18:00 przed koncertem 5’Nizzy zapraszamy na degustację pt. „Nowe browary ukraińskie” (szczegóły na stronie www.progresja.com)

Gogol Bordello to doskonała mieszanka ognistego punk rocka i muzyki cygańskiej. Przez dziennikarzy grupa jest często opisywana jako bardziej teatralna, cygańska odpowiedź na The Pogues. Inni z kolei dodają, że w bogatym instrumentarium zespołu słychać wpływy od Beli Bartoka po Sonic Youth. Gogol Bordello słyną przede wszystkim z fantastycznych koncertów, na których można się spodziewać po prostu wszystkiego!
