Press / Reviews

"The Flying Balalaika Brothers marry traditional Russian, Ukrainian, and Croatian folk music with contemporary, electric rock for a high-energy, dance-able show"

Country Roads magazine 

"The Flying Balalaika Brothers Bridge Cultural Gaps in Texas

Outside-the-box, no-boundaries, take-no-prisoners innovators. The FBBs combine jaw-dropping virtuosity with a masterful sense of mixing up genres"

Pocket Cultures

"The band represents a near perfect example of cross-cultural communication and assimilation, thereby demonstrating to the world the true potential and beauty of multi-cultural cooperation and harmony. "

 Beeville Bee Picayune

"Whispered bluegrass lament "Can't Leave This Way" <> – would benefit from getting lost in translation, but standout "Cumbia de la Carretera" proves these Brothers deserve a place in Austin's new world order."
