Ska-punk chansons under the big top?

What else could something called Babylon Circus sound like? But even that doesn't begin to capture the exhilarating spectacle, more infatuating than rock, more rocking than the circus.

Some describe Babylon Circus as the French version of Gogol Bordello, thanks to their sonic madness and stage antics.

Their music is infused with touches of Django Reinhardt, Balkan Gypsy music, and great French singers like Edith Piaf or Jacques Brell.

Bob Marley is also inescapably present. Their eclectic fusion picks up where French alternative rock band Mano Negra left off, both bands touring extensively in their quest for social justice.
