/sɪˈɛstə kɑːˈtɛl/
A unifying musical movement led by a group of young Italians from Melbourne whose hearts beat to the music they play from a time long ago, where their beloved tradition was born. On a mission to unite all Italians in Australia with the music that helped raise them and they still love today.
“The sound of that music reminds me of my heritage. That sound today is Siesta Cartel.”

Mission accomplished
Siesta Cartel, back to Italy!
Last winter an opportunity has come our way, thanks to the Region of Puglia.
We have been invited to return to the motherland to promote and showcase what we have achieved in keeping the Italian traditions alive down under.
We went back to Puglia, we performed #traffickingtraditions and it was beautiful! We’re looking forward to coming back to our beloved Italy in 2023! Stay tuned!
