Sultans of String Symphony! CD Release at Mary Webb Centre
JUNO Award nominees Sultans of String thrill their audiences with their global sonic tapestry of Spanish Flamenco, Arabic folk, Cuban rhythms, and French Manouche Gypsy-jazz, celebrating musical fusion and human creativity with warmth and virtuosity. Fiery violin dances with rumba-flamenco guitar while a funk bass lays down unstoppable grooves. Since their formation only 5 years ago, Sultans of String have been riding a wave of success, hitting #1 on world/international music charts in Canada, a Juno nomination (Canada’s Grammy), triple Canadian Folk Music Award nominations, winning Instrumental Group of the Year.  They have just released their new CD, Symphony! recorded with a 60 piece orchestra (available through their website at http://www.sultansofstring.com/listen) and their first official video for “Luna” which you can view here: Luna the Whale – Sultans of String – “Luna” – (Official Video).
