Three members of the highly rated Moishe's Bagel – Greg Lawson, Phil Alexander and Mario Caribé – come together in a new project exploring a shared love of world folk music. Dramatic tango meets joyful klezmer and folk-infused originals, wrapped up in irresistible jazz and latin grooves. Violin, piano, bass, mandolin, accordion, guitar. It's virtuoso musicianship with a whole lot of soul.

If you were with us at the Rose Theatre in Edinburgh in August 23 you maybe caught the trio’s inaugural performance – that was even before they had a band name. It was an electrifying performance.

A bit of background: Moishe's Bagel was Scotland's brilliantly unclassifiable world-folk band (see video below). This new incarnation gives the group's three driving forces a chance to explore diverse and uncharted musical pathways, bringing their unique energy and passion to a whole new set of original compositions, as well as setting their sights on music from Armenia to Sao Paolo – with many richly melodic stops along the way.

Featuring the firebrand fiddle and mandolin playing of Grit Orchestra founder Greg Lawson, deep bass groover Mario Caribé, and world music magpie Phil Alexander on piano and accordion.

Put it this way, if you liked Moishe’s Bagel, you’re going to love Triptic!
