The Cabarats bring a new musical experience to the global underground, combining traditional Eastern European and Middle Eastern sounds with lively reggae and ska. Using a collection of intriguing instruments such as accordion, oud, keyboard and brass, the band have dazzled a wide range of audiences from festival crowds and stages at iconic venues to private functions and community events. 
 After the successful release of their debut album 'Out of the Bag', the last few years has been an exciting journey. The band appeared on one of the main stages at Boomtown Fair & gained the attention of BBC Introducing, performing on their stage at Looe Saves the Day. Their list of festival appearances are endless but include Camp Bestival, Tropical Pressure, Chagstock and Goulash Disko in Croatia. 
 ''The Cabarats were probably the highlight of my festival. The vibe that they brought to that tent in the early Sunday evening was palpable. Every single person in that tent was a super-fan by the end of the show. Think eastern European folk, Balkan ska, punk-dub with accordions, ouds, bass and drums flying around all over the place.’’ - Joyzine, Review of Maui Waui Festival 2021
