25th May 2012 at Royal Festival Hall (Bar level 2), London SE1.

Friday Lunch (free event).

Country: Greek Cyprus. Style: Rebetiko.

Lineup: Antonis Antoniou (v/tzouras), Lefteris Moumtzis (v/g), Colin Somervell (b).

The band came together in London in 2005 and includes two Greek Cypriots and an Anglo-Chilean. Moumtzis and Somervell were in a rock group together, while Antoniou was playing electronic music. The remit of Trio Tekke was to combine Rebetiko woth other styles (Reggae, Latin, Jazz), although at this gig I found them much more traditional than was expecting.
