Join Tipsy Oxcart and special guest Nezih in welcoming the New Year. We’re comin’ uptown for a full evening of music, food, and party at Silvana. There’s no cover and a great atmosphere so bring your friends and stick around! A party with Tipsy Oxcart shakes the dance floor all night long.

Tipsy Oxcart plays electric, sweaty, bumpin’ Balkan music, channeling the spirit of 36 hour weddings to keep the crowds dancing until the sun comes up. Serving up originals and fresh, upbeat arrangements of urban dance tunes, the band deviously infuses the sounds of South-Eastern Europe with elements of jazz, funk, and more. Dig naughty violin solos, atomic accordion grooves, freak-me-out clarinet, and the baddest rhythm section on this side of the Mediterranean. A party with Tipsy Oxcart is guaranteed to shake the dance floor all night long!

Percussionist Nezih Antakli plays with Raya Brass Band, West Philly Orchestra, and more. We are so excited to be playing with him!
