The Lemon Bucket Orkestra is a self-described “Balkan-Klezmer-Gypsy-Party-Punk-Super Band” based in Toronto, Ontario. The group were also involved in a collective known as Fedora Upside Down, a collection of bands, artists and theatre acts in the genres of singer-songwriters, improvised party brass, forró, flamenco, Brazilian percussion, ragtime jazz and others founded by Marczyk, Tangi Ropars and Dre Flak of Freeman Dre and the Kitchen Party. In 2011, the band recorded an EP titled Cheeky at CBC. In 2012, Toronto filmmaker Justin Friesen made a short documentary on the band titled Let’s Make Lemonade.
