1. n. heat haze; shimmering of hot air; mirage (from the Japanese).
2. n. four musicians in a multi-culti, urban-gypsyphonic, border-jumping feel-good progressive nomadic world rock band (based in NYC).
Redefining the term ‘world music’, Kagero has influences that literally span the globe. With members hailing from Japan, Bulgaria and NYC, their diversity is blended into a very distinctive Gypsy feel.
