Event Description
Double bill featuring The Faux Paws (US) + Kristina Olsen (US)!
From raging fiddle tunes, to saxophone solos and unrequited love songs, the music of The Faux Paws is hard to pin down with standard genre descriptions. The trio’s contagious groove, and feel-good melting pot folk music has been honed over 10 years of playing together, and is the sound of three close friends (two are brothers), who feel a musical kinship that transcends any stylistic limitations. After nearly a decade of music making, the bi-coastal trio have released their self-titled debut album “The Faux Paws” released in 2021 and their 2023 EP “Backburner”.
Kristina Olsen was born in San Francisco and raised in Haight-Ashbury during the 1960s and won the "New Folk" contest at the Kerrville Folk Festival in Texas in 1985. She is one of the most entertaining and compelling performers on the international acoustic circuit. A superb multi-instrumentalist (acoustic guitar, steel-body slide guitar, saxophone, concertina, banjo, mandolin and piano) as well as an award-winning songwriter with a big bluesy voice, Kristina has audiences around the world coming back for more. Her mix of powerful songs ranging from sassy bottleneck blues to lilting ballads to swing jazz to raunch and roll (as well as her hilarious storytelling) makes for a diverse and satisfying musical experience.
