Kalos, Hayden Stern Band @ FREMONT ABBEY

KALOS: [https://www.kalosband.com]
Kalos is drawn to water. Every performance is like stepping into a river—they never play a song the same way twice. They make music inspired by the maritime traditions of Scotland, Ireland, Scandinavia and North America. Their album titles—Harbour and Headland—honor the meeting point between the land and sea and they sing songs about shorelines, seafarers and drownings. They revel in the driving danceability of Irish tunes, but also take inspiration from the pastoral melodies and naturalistic metaphors of Scottish music. But while the music they write is forged in tradition, it is nonetheless cast and tempered in new and unexpected ways.
“There’s a certain spontaneity at work as the three musicians alternately contest and duel, combine and coalesce to bring their talents together.” -- Folkwords
HAYDEN STERN BAND: [https://www.haydenstern.com/]
As a fiddler, composer, singer, songwriter, visual artist, and community builder Hayden Stern has taken Seattle’s roots music scene by storm. Stern draws freely from multiple traditions, expanding his original base of Scottish fiddling to Irish, Scandinavian, French-Canadian, Appalachian, and beyond. But for his upcoming album, The Morning Dark, he’s focusing on composing tunes himself, bringing his roving ear and keen focus on arranging to a live performance built to rouse everyone to dance. The interaction between performer and audience is what drives Stern, and he’s developed his skills as a performer for concert audiences and dancehalls alike. “Playing for dances is conversational,” he explains. “It's a way of playing where you're really responding to the dancers and letting it be a dialogue. For concerts, the effect range is larger, I have a full color palette of feeling to work with from the stage. There's just different ways to sculpt the energy.”
