Denne aften byder på folk musik af allerhøjeste kvalitet. Den prisvindende trio Twang går på scenen som hovednavn, flankeret af trioen Cheap Jeep.
TWANG:
En koncert med Twang er uforudsigelig. Koncerten er fyldt med humor og varme, når de tre musikere går på scenen og samles om deres fælles mikrofon.
Twangs besætning med guitar, violin, banjo, kontrabas og trestemmig sang er måske nok essensen af den amerikanske folkemusik, men samtidig er trioen kendt for at blande stilarter og epoker sammen, med alt fra jazz til Appalachia-musik og violin baserede hiphop beats. De har fundet deres helt eget udtryk uden at slippe traditionen.
Twang er kendt for deres nærvær, ærlighed og tætte samspil med publikum og hinanden. Det er ikke unormalt, at publikum til deres koncerter både får tårer i øjenkrogen og griner højlydt med bandet. Publikum husker Twang for deres fænomenale trestemmige sang, spilleglæde og musikalske virtuositet. Med musikalsk overskud, historier og drillerier binder trioen sangene sammen til en levende koncertoplevelse.

CHEAP JEEP:
Cheap Jeep er en ny folktrio bestående af musikere med rødder der rækker fra Nashville, Tennessee til Tasmanien og samlet i Danmark.
Musikken udspringer fra den amerikanske folketradition og har historiefortællende sangskrivning som deres fokus, mesterligt udført af 3 virtuose musikere.
Selvom trioen er ny, er de 3 medlemmer meget vante på en scene. Bandets evne til at omdanne enhver scene til deres helt egen og skabe et intimt rum vidner om deres erfaring og musikalske nerve. De byder publikum indenfor i deres australsk-amerikanske varme og fremfører deres melodiske sange med bløde vokalharmonier og instrumental dygtighed.
Rick Hauchmann (US): mandolin & sang
Tom Dockray (TAS): guitar & sang
Mads Bendtsen (DK): kontrabas & sang

This evening offers folk music of the very highest quality. The award-winning trio Twang takes the stage as the headliner, flanked by the trio Cheap Jeep.
TWANG
A concert with Twang is unpredictable. It’s filled with humor and warmth as the three musicians step onto the stage and gather around their shared microphone.
Twang’s lineup of guitar, fiddle, banjo, upright bass, and three-part harmonies may well be the essence of American folk music, but the trio is equally known for blending styles and eras — everything from jazz to Appalachian music to fiddle-based hip-hop beats. They’ve created a sound entirely their own without ever letting go of tradition.
Twang is known for their presence, honesty, and close interplay with both the audience and each other. It’s not unusual for audiences at their shows to tear up one moment and laugh out loud with the band the next. Listeners remember Twang for their phenomenal three-part vocals, joy of playing, and musical virtuosity. With musical flair, stories, and playful banter, the trio ties the songs together into a vibrant live experience.

Though the trio is new, its members are highly seasoned performers. Their ability to transform any stage into their own intimate space speaks to their experience and musical sensitivity. They welcome the audience into their Australian-American warmth, performing their melodic songs with soft vocal harmonies and instrumental finesse.
