The Bambir is a rock band from Gyumri, the Armenian "city of artists." The Bambir was founded during the Soviet Union in the late 1970s, and it's now in its second generation. Some of the current band members are the children of those who started the band. They remain one of the most-popular bands in Armenia. Their sound is a mix of Armenian traditional folk music, mixed with rock and other genres. The World's Daniel Ofman has this profile of the band.
