Giddabush

About Me


Giddabush plays worldmusic that combines traditional tunes with our own compositions. Except for the use of a drumkit, we only use traditional instruments in order to keep the original feeling. We have learnt the music during various trips to Australia, Morocco, Mali, Sápmi (in the north of Sweden) as well as from acknowledged masters of the these musical traditions.
Giddabush has played in over a hundred different venues, ranging from festivals and clubs to concerthalls, radio and tv. Giddabush was formed in 1997 and is based in Sweden.
2005 we went on tour with the legendary Australian didgeridoo player Charlie McMahon, and during Autumn that year we also played for over ten thousand people at the world music festival Urkult in Sweden.
Our ambition is that the audience have a visual experience alongside with the music and therefore we often collaborate with acknowledged dancers and fire artists.
