The Baghdaddies playing at Bridport Arts Centre on March 7, 2008 offer a musical trip traversing many corners of the earth. After performing to audiences throughout Europe for many years with their anarchic melange of traditional European and world musical styles of all eras, the band comes to Bridport in what promises to be one of this year’s most unforgettable musical events.
The Baghdaddies play an eclectic mish-mash of musical merriment. Their sound is influenced by music from throughout the world - from the Roma wedding, brass band and gypsy music of Eastern Europe, through reggae, ska, calypso, jazz and punk rock. The Baghdaddies always maintain a truly happy and seriously danceable side to their music.
Music promoter Keith Hatch said; “Last time The Baghdaddies played in Dorset they topped the bill on Saturday night at The Tolpuddle Martyrs Festival, and the packed Marquee danced all night to one of the best dance bands in the business."
“Its brilliant to be able to bring the band to Bridport and is a great chance, not to be missed, for people to see them up close in the more intimate surroundings of the Arts Centre.”
Getting everyone in the mood will be Bridport’s own legendary DJ, Dr Funk. The good Dr has a long history and solid reputation for great funk music, with a vast collection of the best tunes to get the dance floor jumping,
