The warm tones of her guitar are like a blanket that gently envelops her soft voice. Fingerstyle and singer/songwriter become one.

Judith Beckedorf began playing the guitar when she was 14, performing her first solo concerts early on. She then decided to further her studies in acoustic guitar and moved to Dresden, making it her chosen home base. While developing her own musical language and expression, she spent some time in Nashville, Tennessee, where American folk music inspired her to take up other instruments, such as banjo and mandolin, and sparked her passion for songwriting.

On her album “Behind The Blue Sea”, thoughts and folky melodies intertwine with snappy grooves and graceful ballads. Judith reminisces about the world and the people she observes around her, about her personal experiences or the situations her loved ones encounter: Light-heartedness and the struggle to show vulnerability, goodbyes and feeling eternally connected, or the rain that washes everything away and promises new beginnings, and the thing Judith hates the most: wasting time. Hence the album’s title song “Don’t Waste Your Time”, which celebrates her journey to a new musical galaxy and marks her debut as a singer/songwriter.

But, just like time itself, Judith Beckedorf seldom stands still. She regularly performs solo concerts and is frequently on tour with her progressive folk/americana trio “Standard Crow Behavior”, where the main focus lies on complex arrangements and vocal harmony – here she is able to combine playing guitar, banjo and mandolin with songwriting and singing. In Nashville, she founded the concert series “International Guitar Nights” and, together with Karlijn Langendijk from the Netherlands and Vivek Advani from India, she founded “MusiSHEans”, a network project promoting female musicians.

Her guitar idol, Tommy Emmanuel once said to her: “You are a magician!”

Die Sechsköpfige Band TSOMBAN!S nimmt ihre Zuhörer mit auf eine besondere musikalische Reise. Ihre Eigenkompositionen erzählen Geschichten des täglichen Lebens und lassen den Zuhörer quer durch weite Klangflächen in eine ganz neue Welt eintauchen. Das Jazztrio mit Anna Tsombanis am Tenorsaxophon, Tobias Fröhlich am Bass und Jan Einar-Groh am Schlagzeug erhält durch Felix Klingner an der Violine, Maria Körner an der Viola und Maria Franz am Violoncello eine ganz besondere Klangfarbe: klassischer Sound trifft auf Jazzmelodien. So gelingt es der Band einen eigenen Stil zwischen den beiden Genres zu entwickeln.

A single silver microphone glimmers elegantly from the center of the stage. Two tall gentlemen and one small lady step into the light with their instruments and sing about a man, searching for his lost love even after many years. Ultimately he will never find her, in fact the two have never met... Not every song from the German-American trio Standard Crow Behavior is so bizarre. They are also about departure, the desire to forget, eternal love and aging; they describe the forces which move everyone and everything, and question of the right path of life.
The name of the band is drawn from a traditional American radio show, but the three young musicians don’t feel at home only with old-timey bluegrass. They all write songs and create a flowing blend of traditional folk, modern pop, intricately arranged compositions and jazz. Without pause, the guitar, banjo, mandolin and violin are swapped between songs with somnambulistic surety. These three are versatile in their active development of a new concept: Chamber Folk.
Their strong three-part harmony weaves a layer of sound needing no special effects, allowing listeners to take pause and enjoy a moment of standstill. Standard Crow Behavior plays music which speaks for itself. Completely pure. Sung and played string by string. Through one microphone.
