Altan Urag

Centuries ago our ancestors had conquered half the globe and amazed the world with our culture and tradition. Now we the young generation will conquer once more with our music that is Folk Rock. We hail from Mongolia , Central Asia and we are the “ Алтан Ураг ”. “ALTAN URAG” can be translated or referred to as the Khan's kin. We play folk rock music and our band was formed in May, 2002. That same year we performed our first time gig at the “Roaring Hooves” international ethnic, contemporary music festival in Mongolia .

Hanggai

"Hanggai is made up of young musicians from Beijing and from the Chinese province of Inner Mongolia and their interpretations of traditional songs from the grasslands have attracted quite a following over the last few years. The word ‘hanggai’ is ancient Mongolian, describing an idealised grassland landscape of mountains, trees, rivers and blue skies. Hanggai’s leader, Ilchi, was fronting a punk band until he experienced a conversion after hearing traditional overtone singing.
