the merry poppins

Hailing from Salzburg, Austria, the merry poppins are a live band fusing Balkan styles, Jazz, Hip Hop and 1930s-50s cabaret sounds, with a solid base of skankin' urban roots Reggae. This all is further spiced up with musical inspiration that they have picked up on their tours.
Within the last couple of years, the band has advanced from an insiders' tip to a hot international stage act. Following numerous shows in all kinds of venues, from skanky Jazz clubs to posh castle-resorts, the merry poppins have been invited to play at the International Bansko Jazz Festival 08 (Bulgaria), the International Saalfelden Jazzfestival 08 & 2011 (Austria) and at the Cairo Jazz Festival (Egypt) in 2010 and have toured in Austria, Germany, Hungary, Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia, Bulgaria, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Egypt, Israel, France and Russia. After the successful release of their debut-album Mildenburg 11 – a track even made it into a Korean TV commercial! – the merry poppins released their second album Inspector Malosso in 2009 and have recently released their fist Live Album the merry poppins - live in Moscow.
