Gig Alert: Balkan Beat Box at Brooklyn Bowl

GIG ALERT: Balkan Beat Box @ Brooklyn Bowl, Doors at 6PM, Show at 8PM
Tickets ($20-25)

New York ensemble Balkan Beat Box mixes incisive hip-hop lyrics with punk, reggae, and Eastern European musical influences. Their songs are hard-working, frequently receiving dance-y remix treatments or being sampled – most notably, a Balkan Beat Box track served as the spine for Jason Derulo’s huge international hit “Talk Dirty.”
