LEADBEATERS

'Too rock 'n roll to be folk!' is one of Leadbeaters' mottos. Or another term used by this Amsterdam 'stringband' is: 'With love for old iron, old souls, and old ears.' They make a super tasty mix of American traditionals, old time, blues, bluegrass, folk, and gospel. With this, the quartet pays a musical tribute to the hopeless, the freeloaders, the paupers, the troublemakers, and the misfits. Leadbeaters only use string instruments and draw from the old-time music and jazz ensembles that were popular in the 1920s and 1930s. With furious energy this combo usually turns things upside down during live shows. Clap along, stomp along, shout along? Don't hold back during their show at BRIDGE AROUND TOWN!
