Estonian folk group RO:TORO is back in the UK and will tour the Southwest of England from March 10 - 28 2010.
The tour will take traditional Estonian tunes with lady pipers, an improvising saxophonist, accopanied by a rocking guitarist and a mad percussionist playing water drums to 15 different venues in the Southwest - Dorchester, Somerset, Dorset, Wiltshire, South Gloucestershire, Devon and Cornwall.

With four years of existance, RO:TORO has released two CD-s under the nordic label TUTL and has become a regular performer at folk music festivals both in Estonia and abroad. The group works largely with traditional bagpipe tunes, which also inspire the members’ own compositions. The saxophone and water drums provide a modern counterpoint to the bagpipes’ traditional sound-scape. Acoustic or amplified, RO:TORO will guarantee enthralling performances.
