Chaika
Sydney band, Chaika, will perform at Avoca Beach Picture Theatre from 7:30 pm on Thursday, June 12.
Chaika draws influence from folk traditions, jazz and classical music to create a beguiling and original world music sound. Their latest release ‘I Monti’ (The Mountains), is a collection of both original and traditional pieces, gently wandering through foreign lands, emerging with an enchanting tale to tell. Following their successful debut album of 2012 and Australian tour of 2013, Chaika are on the road again with their The Mountains Tour which will traverse the east coast of Australia from Melbourne to Brisbane, playing both in capital cities and regional centres.
Chaika is: Emily-Rose Sarkova: piano accordion, piano, vocals; Laura Bishop: percussion, piano, vocals; Susie Bishop: violin, vocals, guitar; Laura Altman: clarinet, vocals; Johan Delin: double bass, vocals; and Rendra Freestone: percussion, vocals, guitar.
