Drom Taberna - Friday May 23rd, 2025

Official Estonian Music Week Afterparty: Dumai Dunai Estonian Music Week 2025

---

Join us for the EMW's official Friday night afterparty hosted by good friends at DROM Taberna! Headlining the show, and in charge of getting your feet moving, are Dumai Dunai along with some surprise special guests.

Dumai Dunai
Slavic dub-punk missionaries Dumai Dunai have been winning the hearts of audiences all over the world since they first burst onto the scene in 2022. Based in Montreal with members from Ukraine and Bulgaria, the seven-piece combines the deep grooves of dub with the energy of punk rock, the raw ecstasy of the blasting horns of Balkan wedding brass bands, and the joys and sorrows of Ukrainian village polyphony.

Lead singers Natalia Telentso and Eli Camilo sing and write lyrics in several languages including Ukrainian, English, Serbian, Polish, Spanish, Macedonian, and Romanes. Featuring past and present members of the Lemon Bucket Orkestra, Orkestar Kriminal, Boogat, and Bad Uncle, Dumai Dunai has been honoured to share the stage with artists including the Barr Brothers, Socalled and Balaklava Blues, and have played festivals such as Pop Montreal, BLOK Toronto, Tallinn Music Week, Mundial Montreal, and Newfoundland Folk Festival.

Dumai Dunai exists somewhere between the underground scene of their beloved Montreal and the mountains and valleys of their Slavic homelands.
