Super Rats in Shrunken Form

Event

Super Rats, Canberra's authentic Romanian folk band, play rough-edged traditional music for dancing and partying. At the heart of the band is a rare and wonderful instrument: the cimbalom. It's something like a honkytonk piano meets xylophone on the shores of the Black Sea.

Join for this special fun-sized edition where they swap out the giant cimbalom for its midget backwoods cousin. Same multi-stringed fun with an even more rambunctious tone! Aural moonshine that makes banjos ashamed for their highbrow airs. They'll explore some alternative deep rural repertoire, particularly from Teleorman county, the 'crazy forest' of legend, full of brigands and plum brandy.
