Arts Center's Saturday Series continues with Sultans of String
The Adirondack Lakes Center for the Arts continues its Saturday Series with the return of the Sultans of String, a Canadian trio whose music includes Celtic, flamenco, Arabic, Cuban, and Asian rhythms, on August 5 at 7:30 p.m. at the Arts Center. Tickets are available online at adirondackarts.org.
Three-time JUNO (Canada’s Grammy) nominees Sultans of String are an “energetic and exciting band with talent to burn!” (Maverick Magazine, UK). Serving up messages of hope and cultural harmony alongside a musical passport of Gypsy-jazz, Arabic, Flamenco, Celtic and Cuban rhythms, fiery violin dances with kinetic guitar, while bass lays down unstoppable grooves. Throughout, acoustic strings meet electronic wizardry to create layers and depth of sound.
Celebrating a milestone 10 years together, Sultans of String have hit #15 on Billboard’s world music charts, #1 across Canada on world music charts, and received multiple awards and accolades, including a SiriusXM Award, 1st place in the ISC (out of 15,000 entries), 3 Canadian Folk Music Awards, plus invitations to perform/record with such luminaries as The Chieftains, Richard Bona, Ruben Blades, and Sweet Honey in the Rock.
The appearance of the Sultans of String is generously sponsored by the Tom Fagan Fund.
The Arts Center's Saturday Series will continue with New York City pianist Richard Dowling with a program of Scott Joplin music on Aug. 26, and the return of the Vermont folk group the Woods Tea Company on September 9. Tickets for all these concerts are available now online at adirondackarts.org. The Arts Center is located at 3446 State Route 28, Blue Mountain Lake.
