backyard rhythm

Big festival party band taking influence from an eclectic mix of world music traditions featuring conscious lyrics, sweet harmonies, and loads of energy.  Formed out of the beautiful cultural melting pot of the alternative Newcastle party scene we are a gathering of trained and talented musicians, poets, dancers and dreamers.

A review for the Newcastle Green Fest recently wrote -

“BYRO mix up a little of almost everything into a festival dance band storm. With styles covering Reggae, Ska, Balkan, Hip-Hop, Cumbia, Rave, Funk and Drum and bass. This is fused with conscious and political protest and a sense of humour”.
