Pleased To Meet You (Live)

Put It In A Box

No Way

Lost

Running Away

Walter

A true example of the ever present diversity in sound from the South West of England. Boasting an array of live instruments including Trombone, Saxophone, Flute, Accordion, Synth Bass, Banjo, amongst others. Balkan, Gypsy, Ska and Reggae are some of the many genres that this eclectic band draw their musical mega sounds from. Their offbeat vibes are made for moving feet and causing raucous, rambunctious stomposity. Often causing feet to twitch in the most unlikely of people, they are never short of a lively and enthusiastic crowd.

Over the last year, Manushka has appeared at many unforgetable festivals and shows including Boomtown Fair, Sunrise, Balter and the international gypsy music bonanza known as Goulash Disko in Croatia. In between the festival shenanigans, the band have been booked as main support for some of their biggest influences such as Dunkelbunt, Electric Swing Circus, Babyhead and Gentleman’s Dub Club. All of this plus affiliations with Bristol’s Fat Hat Collective and Diplomats of Sound mean big things are looming on the horizon for Manushka.
