Montreal’s GKO is an explosion of music and dance, circus and imagination.
Part of the international cumbiero movement, the orchestra fusions Colombian Caribbean rhythms and percussions with different influences from around the world into a creative chaos that makes people dance.
VelkomBak, our second album features a dozen original compositions that greatly expands the musical palette of the band, with strong influences from India, the Andes, Quebec, Spain, Latin America and the Balkans, as well as other popular music styles such as ska, big-band jazz and funk. A uniquely recipe, connecting disparate cultures and traditions through the common thread of cumbia's rhythmic language.
GKO music has a flavor that could transport you to either an exuberant tropical landscape, than to the
extravaganza of the Balkan’s universe or to the golden era of the big bands. Combining accordion, violin, clarinet, a full brass session, Colombian percussions, singing and dance, GKO is a world in itself.
