A night of barrel-house vintage, filthy swing, old-time jazz, Americana, poetry, ballads, sonatas and waltzes with Fred Snow and the Bootleg Trio, Archive Valley, Gabriel Moreno & The Quivering Poets and Keleigh Wolf…

Playing in a small group off-shoot formed from the core of The Top Shelf Band, Fred Snow and The Bootleg Trio deliver gnarly old barrel house vintage tunes and street smart wit.

Archive Valley are a trio based in Rome, Italy who draw from the repertoire of Old-Time and Americana, stripping back old melodies and building them up once again with jazz, classical and experimental folk influences. These accomplished musicians feature mandolin, banjo, double bass, accordion and piano to conjure up new soundscapes for their traditional and original repertoire.

Gabriel Moreno has been described as a modern Cohenian troubadour, an old rascal/poet song-creator, an instigator of the bardian night and a pursuer of musical, poetical and human connections. His debut album, “Love and Decdence,” released in 2015 by Amber Records – UK, is full of ballads, sonatas and waltzes dedicated to the night, romance and dreamy pink smoke. Finely-crafted lyrics, melodies and passionate performances are his trademark according to the musical connoisseurs. His Quivering Poets are some of the finest and most interesting musicians in the alternative folk scene.
