Who is Danubius?
Danubius is a San Francisco-based Eastern European band,
specializing in traditional and Gypsy (Rom) music from Hungary, Romania, Serbia, Bulgaria, Macedonia, and other countries in the vicinity of the Danube River. Our music has been called romantic, passionate, energizing, and can be described as a cross between the genres of folk and Classical music. We play both Western and traditional Hungarian, Romanian, and Bulgarian musical instruments, giving us a unique sound.
In addition to public performances, we're available for weddings, private parties, festivals, and all festive occasions.
