About this event
To understand the story of The Trouble Notes, one must understand the story of our world. In an effort to reduce cultural barriers, The Trouble Notes have made it their mission to create their own cultural universe, mixing influences from all over the world into their songs. The emotional, pan-cultural music of the group forms personal memories into a colourful melting pot of different traditions, touching on deep and complex stories of the human condition and social experiences. Having grown up in different countries with different traditions, they each bring a unique perspective to life and music, offering a reminder that their brand of fusion can show unity in diversity.
The Berlin-based quartet is composed of violinist Bennet Cerven, guitarist Florian Eisenschmidt, and percussionist Oliver Maguire. Bennet, a classically trained violinist born in Chicago, began his violin playing at 4 years old. An avid history lover and academic, he first conceived the original compositions out of a desire to travel and a lust for adventure to faraway lands. Oliver was born into a family of rock and roll. His father was the tour manager of Motorhead for many years and the late Phil Taylor began teaching Olly the drums from a young age. He has since been influenced by some of the best rhythmic guitarists – the likes of Rodrigo y Gabriela, John Butler, and Tommy Emanuel.
Their emotionally driven, instrumental ballads reflect pan-cultural influences and blend an eclectic fusion of traditions, creating a unique sound. The group has achieved success and wide acclaim for past releases, with their previous EP Soundtracks from the Street reaching the Top 5 in USA iTunes charts for Latin & World Music. They have scored multiple films and have performed live on radio and television.
The Trouble Notes live a never-ending adventure travelling and telling the stories of people and places through their music.
