Old Salt

The band Old Salt is an award-winning, energy packed, transatlantic musical journey that will pull you along for an adventure from the Americas, across Scandinavia and into the Balkans.

“Old Salt” is Americana, Old-Time and Roots music, but offer so much more by celebrating and implementing the musical backgrounds of the different band members that influenced the sound of the project over the last ten years of its existence. The band will tear through a Bulgarian tune or draw from the grooves of Scandinavian folk songs. You’ll hear Appalachian Mountain sounds next to Andes Mountain music. It’s a journey from the streets of New Orleans up to the folk revival of the North East USA... In other words, don’t box them in! But rest assured, your world-music, jazz, blues, bluegrass, classical, swing and singer-songwriter-loving audiences will fall in love with Old Salt.
Be ready to see and hear an energy-packed live performance that’ll kick you out of your seat, exciting arrangements, medleys that leap from culture to culture, or ballads that speak of life, love, loss, social and environmental justice. It’s handcrafted, original, and traditional music, sung with four-part harmonies and played close around one microphone, a kind of improvised dance that brings a heightened connection between the musicians and the audience as well.
