Additionally, it’s no secret that this year has been a rollercoaster of madness, so make sure you end it on an insane, sweat soaked high note with Gogol Bordello at Brooklyn Steel (NYC) or The Anthem(DC) where you can dance your stress away! The Wall Street Journal raved about the band’s live performance saying, “Gogol Bordello mashed punk energy with Eastern European modes for a set that received the wildest reception of any show I saw,” while the LA Times said, “Gogol Bordello celebrates sensuality in both words and raucous, joyful internationalist dance rock.”

The band has taken Europe by storm this fall, and is excited to round out the year back in The States. Check out full details below.

Gogol Bordello is continuing to support their newest release, SEEKERS AND FINDERS, which finds the nine-piece multi-cultural band in top form – an aural party of violins, accordions, trumpet, marimba amongst the standard rock basics of guitars, drum and bass. “I was still bouncing between Latin America and Eastern Europe when songs were emerging, but finally, as soon as I moved back to New York, it all came into focus… as it always did for me here,” he explains.

Seekers and Finders has been getting serious love from publications like NPR, WNYC Soundcheck, Magnet, Paste, Washington Post, and USA Today.

“This insatiable seeker has been accessing his “higher self” via a rock he translated into grand, Slavic, violin-sawing immigrant punk” –Robert Christgau via Noisey

“Each member is a star, every instrument appreciated by every musician in a way that truly makes the band feel like the proud, multicultural family it is. This is a band filled with unstoppable energy. Seekers and Finders is yet another display of lyrical and melodic depth that proves the group is still in explosive form — and intends to stay that way.” –PopMatters

Formed in 1999, Gogol Bordello took their style of Eastern European-influenced gypsy punk and doused it deep into the underground rock of New York City. Having worked with numerous grandmasters of production including Rick Rubin, Steve Albini, Andrew Scheps, and Victor Van Vugt, Seekers and Finders brings the band full circle with Eugene taking over the producer’s chair.

Gogol Bordello is Eugene Hütz (vocals/guitar), Sergey Ryabtsev (violin), Thomas Gobena (bass), Pedro Erazo-Segovia (vocals/percussion), Pasha Newmer (accordion), Boris Pelekh (guitar), Alfredo Ortiz (drums), Ashley Tobias (vocals / percussion). Seekers and Finders is out now via Cooking Vinyl.
