Gusto Gusto (AUS) Folk Funk Party with Niko Ne Zna

Melbourne's Gusto Gusto return to NZ to bring their second album Tyrannosauroborus to Wellington with an instrumental dance party at MEOW.



The last two years have seen Gusto Gusto storming stages including Glastonbury Festival (UK), Dark Mofo (TAS) and Whare Flat Folk Festival (NZ) and playing shows with Skerryvore (SCO), Snarky Puppy (US) and Sex On Toast.

Amidst a whirlwind year with over 50 shows they found time to record a 13 track genre crossing album, a raucous instrumental blend of accordion, trumpet, clarinet and rocking rhythm section that traverses the worlds of funk, afrobeat, djent and celtic music.

This show is supported by local legends Niko Ne Zna: "a world class world music extravaganza. A staple of the New Zealand festival circuit and frequently selling out shows at home and more recently in Australia. A hot and spicy taste of the old countries right here in the capital of New Zealand. Playing captivating original music as well as classic songs from the Romani-soaked Balkan States, Niko Ne Zna’s hypnotic melodies and wild infectious rhythms will set even the most rhythmically challenged moving and grooving!"
