22.01.2022 Here at Vardos Alana is planning large scale interactive sculptures, Sofia is creating more audio plays and Kirri is learning accordion in order to confuse you all when we are let out. Friday in Pacific daylight time is BANDCAMP FRIDAY which means that our distributors let the artists keep all the proceeds from album sales, so it's a great time to support Vardos and catch up with our albums! If $7 seems too much you can buy individual tracks for $1. Thanks to everyone who has supported us so far by giving extra! It helps to keep us afloat. All 6 albums available digitally, from our first album recorded in Budapest 1999 to this year's release 'The Top Secret Violin Case', the Romanian spy comedy thriller. https://vardostrio.bandcamp.com/

17.01.2022 Friends, Romanians, Countrypersons, October 2nd is Bandcamp Friday! With Vardos performances cancelled, you can enjoy our music and support us by buying albums online. We have made them ridiculously cheap, but you are welcome to give more- thanks so much to those who have! First Friday of the month is a great time to do it as Bandcamp are waiving their fees and 100% goes to artists! 6 Vardos albums available including 'The Top Secret Violin Case', the 2020 audioplay recording of our La Mama theatre show, supported by the City of Melbourne COVID-19 Arts Grants. Bandcamp Friday is midnight to midnight Pacific time which is 5pm Friday to 5pm Saturday in Australian Eastern Standard Time. https://vardostrio.bandcamp.com/
