BROTHER MULE
"playing music of yesterday and today like there’s no tomorrow“
2016 Nov 27. until Dec 4.
Brother Mule in concert is a musical conversation between two of America’s most gifted acoustic musicians. The bandmates share the spotlight in a circus of extraordinary talent and variety. Brian Wicklund ignites the stage with his fiery fiddling, while Ben Winship plays tasty mandolin as he croons one of his finely crafted songs.
Their debut recording, Big Twang, earned them the Indie Music Award's Best Americana CD of 2005. It's a showcase of original and traditional vocals and instrumentals spanning genres of swing, old time, Celtic, old country and acoustic funk.
Joining them for their upcoming European tour is German native, Thomas Kaerner on double bass. A multi-instrumentalist with many years of experience as a touring and session musician for numerous acoustic bands, Thomas provides the essential foundation of the trio's sound with his tasteful bass lines and solid rhythm.
