Molino is a wonderful and weird band, consisting of four horns and drums, who play original compositions in their very own adventurous and energetic way.
A hurly burly experience of unlimited possibilities.
Their setting reminds of the old New Orleans bands but musically it goes into a new direction.
The music is based on grooves in combination with refined arrangements- it is very expressiv and resonating but leaves a lot of freedom to the band members. You can expect joyfulness, collective improvisations and a certain edge.
The concept of making acoustic music might appear contrary to the musical development of the last years but Molino is a child of this generation that has no fear of Amsterdam’s tradition. The result is something that can only happen now and that will instantly capture your imagination.
