Eva Moon: Music

For Eva Moon, music was her path to storytelling. Each song is a story.

Singer-Songwriter

Eva Moon & the Lunatics entertained audiences with quirky, high-energy pop, jazz, funk, and Latin originals. The music is hot and the lyrics are hotter. Nigerian scammers, sexy bankers, Brazilian waxing, mail order vibrators, barista lust. Nothing is off-limits.

The band disbanded a few years ago, but we have two CDs: Something’s Brewing (2004) and Moon Falling Down (2009). If you want one, contact me and I’ll send it to you.

Eva Moon music was also featured in the documentary “Plunder: the Crime of our Time” directed by Danny Schechter.


Balkanarama

It’s getting late, but the celebration’s far from over. The crowd chants for more, and the band launches into a wild Gypsy rumba. The horn players swap sizzling solos, and the dancers start shakin’ it. It’s another night with Balkanarama.

We’re Americans who perform contemporary Balkan music, from ancient Romany ballads to modern Bulgarian video hits. We give them a flavor all our own on sax and clarinet with four soulful voices, powered by a nonstop dance beat on synth, bass, and drums.

We’ve been arousing audiences at clubs, festivals, weddings, and parties in the Pacific Northwest since 1997. With a repertoire of over 100 songs, we can lay down a killer club set, present a formal concert or play all night for a Bulgarian wedding. We especially like introducing Balkan Gypsy party music to audiences who’ve never heard it before.

For more videos, recordings, info about live performances, see Balkanarama’s website and Facebook page.
