Folk on 45 at the Fonó

Saturday 14 November

Lili Träger sings, Lajos Szőllősi plays guitar, and a looper pedal turns the two of them into something that sounds like a full band. Hungarian folk melodies come out the other side as new songs.

About the event

Folk on 45 set the feel of international hits next to motifs from Hungarian folk song, and write new material out of the two rather than arranging covers. The looper is the method: rhythm first, then harmony, then melody, each layer laid over the last until a live, pulsing texture stands up in front of you. The folk melodies sit inside that texture instead of being quoted from outside it, which is what pushes them into the present. The evening gathers ten years of the duo's songs. Ticketed, and it costs less to book ahead.
