At the crossroads of South American folk music and Northern Americana you will find Acoustic Nomads, a band of rising stars taking the acoustic music scene by storm.
Acoustic Nomads interweaves folkloric traditions from North and South America with soaring musical improvisation, and their influences span from Appalachia to Argentina.
The band's unique sound is a result of the players harnessing these varied musical interests and joyously exploring uncharted territory together.
Since forming in 2019, Acoustic Nomads has headlined performances at WBUR Cityspace in Boston, Club Passim in Cambridge, Arts at the Armory in Somerville, and has performed at festivals including Freshgrass, Grey Fox, Ossipee Valley Music Festival, and Joe Val.
The members of Acoustic Nomads have toured nationally and internationally, playing everywhere from NPR Tiny Desk, to the British Isles, Peru, and Canada.
Their performances maintain the spirit of folkloric music, while delving into conversational soloing and sophisticated chamber music arrangements, showing how different cultures can come together and join in the celebration of humanity through art.
Acoustic Nomads’ two most recent albums, “The Abominable Stringband Vol. 1 & 2,” are available for streaming and purchase wherever you get your music!
Following in the footsteps of world music giants like The Silk Road Project, Acoustic Nomads seeks to change the world through musical collaboration. By highlighting the diversity within and commonality between musical traditions, Acoustic Nomads seeks to create curious, compassionate fans of global music all over the world.
