It’s time to get down with some “Bhangra Funk Dhol ‘n’ Brass!” This band of Brooklyn maestros is quickly shaking and rattling their way into everyone’s party playlists. From the Great Googa Mooga to NPR’s World Cafe, Red Baraat are being celebrated far and wide for churning out unstoppable maelstroms of rhythm and melody. This eight-piece leans heavily on Indian Bhangra flavor but adds elements of go-go, brass funk, and other eclectic world elements. Their three records are expertly produced and capture the many lush layers of instrumentation with fantastic energy and clarity.
