Victoria-based KSAR is an ever-evolving collective of musicians formed in 2021. With accordion and vocals supported by guitars, bass, trumpet, mandolin, drums, and synth, KSAR delivers strong Balkan, Middle Eastern dance and Afrobeat influences interlaced with contemporary pop, indie rock, and chamber folk styles. Their live show is colourful, danceable, and emotionally charged, with lyrical themes that seek to inspire positive change and touch on difficult topics. Raising important questions about our current way of life, while participating in a vibrant celebration of it, is what KSAR embodies.
