Romano Drom is one of the most renowned representatives of contemporary Romani culture in Hungary.
Since its founding in 1999, the band has toured the world—from Cairo to New York, from South Korea to London, from Beijing to Oslo. They have performed across the Middle East, the Far East, overseas, and in nearly every country in Europe.
Their distinctive musical style has earned them widespread acclaim and established Romano Drom as one of the most sought-after bands preserving Romani culture while performing world music. The group’s mission is to share their unique sound with audiences who may not yet be familiar with Vlach Romani music, dance, or traditions—and to make them fall in love with it.This vision is clearly reflected in their albums, where they blend authentic Vlach Romani melodies with musical elements familiar from other cultures.
Every performance promises a vibrant atmosphere, dancing, and a truly special world music experience.
