Sultans of String celebrate the release of Symphony! a CD that brings the glorious sound of a full orchestra to their feisty world-jazz compositions. The Sultans are Chris McKhool-violin, Kevin Laliberte-guitar, Eddie Paton-second guitar, Drew Birston-bass and Alberto Suarez-percussion. The Sultans of String were nominated for a 2010 Juno Award for Instrumental Album of the Year and 2012 Canadian Folk Music Awards for Instrumental Group of the Year, World Group of the Year and Pushing The Boundaries. In 2008 and 2009 they were first place winners in the instrumental category in the International Songwriting Competition. Known for dizzying roots music jams, poly-rhythms and revved up riffs, Sultans of String can’t be pinned down. Sable Island meets the Silk Road, with detours through the Gypsy-Jazz coffeehouses of Eastern Europe, an East Coast Kitchen Party, then over to the majestic Arctic and vibrant streets of Havana.

Watch and listen to the Sultans of String perform with the Cathedral Bluffs Symphony Orchestra in their official video Luna The Whale.

Natasha Platt is known for her powerful vocals, her unforgettable melodies and her ability to engage an audience. Emily Triggs’ honest, authentic vocals win fans everywhere she sings her alt-county music. Corry Ulan brings quirky and humorous songs performed on banjo and bass. Magnolia Buckskin are four sublime voices playing refreshing originals that will elevate your soul into the rafters of the nearest saloon.
