ROIO - SCYTHIAN Live at the Berkeley Cafe, Raleigh, NC, 2010








Scythian recently toured Ireland on their 10th anniversary tour. Besides, they've just released a new album, "Jump at the Sun".

This recording of independent origin was taped in 2010 and is backed by the band.

"Scythian (sith-ee-yin) plays kicked-up Celtic and world music with hints of Gypsy and Klezmer, all infused with a touch of punk-rock sensibility. Take classically trained dueling fiddlers, toss in a rhythm guitar, a banjo and accordion, then power it with the driving rhythm of a world percussionist, and you've got the ingredients for a show you won't soon forget. They headline US Celtic Festivals  

Named after Ukrainian nomads, Scythian (sith-ee-yin) plays immigrant rock with thunderous energy, technical prowess, and storytelling songwriting, beckoning crowds into a barn-dance rock concert experience. Celebrating 10 years of getting people dancing all night, Scythian has released their new album, Jump at the Sun, August 15, with new songs debuting at shows before then."
