Eero Turkka
Eero Turkka (born 1970 in Kitee, Finland) is a folk musician best know from Sväng harmonica quartet, which has been touring around the world since 2003. Besides harmonicas he also plays other instruments and sings folk songs from different traditions. Especially close to his heart are songs of Finnish Roma and music from the Balkans. Since 2010 he has been living in Bulgaria and actively learning local folk music.

CincáR
Wandering in the fabulous world of Eastern-European tunes. In the old days there were travelling merchants who crawled a lot of countries from Macedonia, Bulgaria, Serbia and Romania to Hungary with their goods. They were the cincárs as Hungarians called them and beside their exciting wares they always had interesting news as well. Like these wanderers the CincáR guys bring their own goods: magical old tunes from all over Eastern-Europe. The duo started with a friendship of two Hungarian musicians, Bence Babcsán and Attila Buzás. They both played folk music from the Carpathian Basin and the Balkans, and are strongly influenced by a wide range of genres like jazz, classical or oriental.

Meitheal
From the Irish word for ‘working collaboratively.’ Meitheal is Modal Citizen Records’ in-house trad project band. The band can range from a duo to an entire 12-piece depending on the circumstances. It features some of the finest performers of traditional music from South Donegal, North Leitrim, and West Fermanagh. Their first album 'Songs of Erne Volume 1: Traditional Music from South Donegal and West Fermanagh' was released in 2017.
