Fantastic Fox: Kuma Lisa with "Summer Dream"

Happy New Year! Our first song to start off the new year, on what for many of you may be a cold winter day, is called Summer Dream by Kuma Lisa. An international trio based in East London, the band's name is based on a fox from folktales from Eastern European countries. The members are Mariana Bogdanova on lead vocals, percussion and acoustic guitar, Rupert Gillett on 6 & 12 string guitars, double bass, cello, salaw (a stringed instrument from southeast Asia), bass pedals and vocals, and Rob Stutterheim on piano, accordion and vocals. The band mixes folk from eastern and western Europe with pop and jazz influences. You can find Summer Dream on their 2013 album Kuma Lisa.
