Collaborations

Bollywood Brass Band horns with Balkan Beat Box

The BBB has collaborated with a number of artists and groups over the years, both professional and amateur.

Current collaborative projects - include singer Rafaqat Ali Khan, Dhol Dhamaka and SamBhangra.

In addition, you can also book the BBB with live dancer or video projections.

The band has developed its repertoire over a number of years - each song arranged by main arrangers Kay Charlton, Sarha Moore, and Ros Davies, and the songs can be arranged to suit any ensemble or line up. In this way new and exciting versions of our repertoire can be created, whether working with a singer or traditional Indian instruments.
