“The Stringbeans are an upbeat, contemporary acoustic string band – playing bluegrass, swing, country and blues. A typical performance features dynamic vocals, soaring harmonies and exciting instrumental breaks. All the ‘Beans’ come from a variety of musical backgrounds and play in other bands and genres. They are passionate musicians who have combined their considerable experience and talents to create a fun, infectious band that obviously enjoys performing and entertaining a crowd”; Trad and Now magazine.
