Our next album ‘Szikra’
Our next album Szikra is a collaboraton with the wonderful band Söndörgő from Hungary. And, of course, with a new album (especially when it turned out so well) (yes, we’re quite proud of it) there should also be a tour, so you can hear the music live. We did three shows last year, and those shows were wonderful. Here’s a little video to tease you all. Come see us this summer, somewhere in Europe, possibly even further away!

Septacost – Multimedia Klezmer Show
All over the world AKB shows end up in spontaneous dance parties. The new musical theatre performance Septacost offers you more than just that. The band cleverly plays with the expectations of the audience in a virtuoso appearance that balances between melancholy and euphoria. Curious? Check the aftermovie of our show in Theater de Meervaart here.
