Crystal Fighters are an eclectic electronic band originating from London, United Kingdom, renowned for their innovative blend of folk, Basque traditional music, and contemporary dance beats. Formed in 2007, the group quickly built a reputation for their energetic live performances and boundary-pushing sound, drawing from a wide array of influences including synth-pop, dubstep, and world music rhythms. The members have consistently demonstrated an experimental approach, often incorporating live instrumentation such as txalaparta and txistu—Basque folk instruments—into their highly rhythmic and melodic compositions.
Their debut album, "Star of Love" (2010), introduced audiences to their distinctive fusion of soulful vocals and jubilant, festival-ready dance tracks, a direction further explored in subsequent releases like "Cave Rave" (2013) and "Everything Is My Family" (2016). Widely celebrated for their uplifting music and collaborative ethos, Crystal Fighters have garnered an international fanbase, touring extensively across Europe, the Americas, and beyond. Their commitment to cultural fusion, lyrical positivity, and heartfelt celebration of life remain enduring hallmarks of their unique artistry.
