Megitza Quartet live at Mayne Stage Theater (Chicago)

live performance of an original tune titled "Bloody Cloth" (by Malgorzata Babiarz) ...... forgive the shaking or the "blackout" :)....to busy dancing! :)

The band is fronted by Malgorzata Babiarz - also an upright bass player - with her strong, expressive voice and a Highlander Gypsy soul, Andreas Kapsalis, -an exceptional guitarist of a Greek descent, who uses a unique technique of finger tapping and incorporates his guitar's body as percussion instrument, together with Marek Lichota - a Polish bayan virtuoso, and all backed by an excellent innovative drummer Jamie Gallagher, who uses a hybrid, multicultural drum set.

With their high energy stage presence, original compositions, and arrangements, the Megitza Quartet offers it's audiences an insurmountable dose of adventure where even without knowing the language anyone can be captivated by their songs , that give a pinch of inspiration, a smile, and a tear...
