The festival will also feature the flamenco jazz sounds of ARIADNA CASTELLANOS, Canadian party brass band ROMA CARNIVALE, the powerful all-star collective SWAY MACHINERY, the Gypsy cabaret stylings of Portland's SEPIATONIC, Berlin's queen of Balkan Beats, the uber-ecletic DJ IPEK. For the first time this year the festival will include a film screening, a Romani music workshop and a brass battle for the benefit of ZLATNE USTE'S GOLDEN FESTIVAL.
