Strapa (RO)

The band’s mission is to revive and share the raw, powerful sound of the traditional fiddle-viola-cello ensembles of the Kalotaszeg region. As they put it, the attire may be ornate, but the music—like village life in the old days—is tough and demanding.

They draw their strongest inspiration from the music of legendary bands such as the Csipás Band of Huedin, the Burálók of Luna, the Árus family of Mera, the Toskás of Florești, Viski Rudi of Gilău, and Boldi Puiu and his band from Sâncraiu Almașului.
