BALKAN SOCIAL CLUB:
This is one of the most dynamic, unpredictable and explosive shows you could ever witness.

The band members have literally adopted the styles of different cultures by mixing their own songs and evergreens with Balkan music and
Romanian folklore thus enriching the band’s reach when it comes to playing different genres.
Can you imagine Rihanna's “Rude Boy”, Justin Timberlake’s “Sexy Back” or even a well known classic such as Michael Jackson’s “Beat It” stripped down and rebuilt in a Balkan fashion?
LIVE LATIN JAZZ:
The best things about Mandinga is the fact that all of its members are trained and schooled as professional musicians. And even better, their love for music started with two simple words: latin-jazz. This is one type of show in which Mandinga always delivers. Although it’s a strictly instrumental performance, the latin-jazz show by Mandinga give out very strong and positive vibrations that set the crowd in motion. Mandinga’s latin-jazz performance is not to be missed.
CLUB de MANDINGA and ZALEILAH:
In today’s fast-passed and forever-changing music industry, Mandinga has always been a name that resisted to the test of time. That is because they were never afraid of creating new concepts for their live performances. “Club de Mandinga” is the name of the band’s newest type of show. It combines the energy and flavor of the band’s best know songs and some international hits with pounding club beats that are sure to make you jump with joy. The song that started the entire concept is “Zaleilah”, Mandinga’s latest single. “Zaleilah” is the name of a dance that the band invented especially for this song. This is also the name of the princess that Elena plays in the video of the song.
