Electrifying musical group returns to Dallas. Get your tickets for tonight’s show!
DALLAS (KDAF) — On Nov. 10, The Trouble Notes will bring their signature genre-bending, progressive folk rock fusion to Opening Bell Coffee at 7 p.m. This dynamic trio — American violinist Bennet Cerven, German guitarist Florian Eisenschmidt, and Australian drummer Julian Lardis — promises a show packed with electrifying performances and a global blend of sound.
Blending progressive folk rock with flavors from every corner of the globe, The Trouble Notes have developed a style that's as hard to pin down as their passport stamps. In a recent interview, the band shared that their eclectic style is both a choice and a natural evolution, fueled by a decade of travel, immersion in diverse cultures, and the unique backgrounds of each member, hailing from different continents.
"We consciously chose a transient life, moving from place to place in search of influences and experiences," the band explained. Their music, largely instrumental, aims to create cross-cultural connections. "It's a call to open our audiences' minds to the unknown while celebrating the unique diversity of the cultures of our world."
Their latest studio album, Liberty Awaits , is a testament to that global perspective, each track inspired by people they've met on their travels. The title track captures the journey of Bennet's Irish ancestors immigrating to North America, while " Mayahuel ," a Latin-influenced piece, is a nod to their friendship with Rodrigo y Gabriela, with whom they toured in 2019. The song is also dedicated to their friend who lives in Belgium. In short, their work is storytelling through sound, and each song is a passport to somewhere new.
"Our vision is to mix different styles and expose our audience to something different," the band explained. "We hope to open our audience's minds to the unknown and celebrate the unique diversity of our world."
Beyond the music, these artists have heart. Their " More Violins, Less Violence " campaign, which they'll bring to Dallas, is raising funds for SOS Children's Villages to support children impacted by the war in Ukraine.
So, what can Dallas fans expect?
"Dallas has always been one of our most enthusiastic audiences," the band exclaimed. "This time, we'll be bringing a lot of new music and stories."
