Maria Reikko & Best Case Scenario Band on jalan alle menevää nykykansanmusiikkia kunnon mytkeellä! Elävän elämän inspiroimassa musiikissa ei säästellä sointiväreissä eikä kokoonpano kieltäydy kutsusta kansanmusiikin ekologisen lokeron ulkopuolelle. Keikoilla on nähty paitsi mielenliikutusta kaikkiin suuntiin, myös huimapäisiä sooloja ja tanssia. Kokkolassa vuonna 2015 perustettu 7-henkinen akustinen yhtye kunnioittaa perinteistä poljentoa, mutta tulkitsee musiikkia kuitenkin aivan omasta vauhdistaan traditioille iloisesti vilkutellen. Reikon kappaleet yhdessä sovittanut yhtye tahtoo musiikin tuottavan kuulijalleen iloa ja olevan tanssittavaa sekä perinteisellä että vapaalla tyylillä.

We are a salsa and jazz and world music band consisting of (mostly) anthropologists.

I'm a singer-songwriter with a passion for folk music and high fantasy, currently living in Washington DC.  A vocalist, guitarist, and (hesitant) violinist, I combine finger-picked guitar, intricate vocal harmonies, and folk-inspired melodies to create my music. 

If you love Lord of the Rings, please check out ‘Roads Go Ever, Ever On’, my collection of J. R. R. Tolkien’s poems set to original music. I also have a fair number of Age of Sail poems floating around as well (pun intended), as well as other poetry settings.

In addition to writing and setting songs, I’ve also acted in and composed/arranged/performed music for several theatrical productions including Twelfth Night (Bare Bodkin, Tufts University), Richard III (Tufts University), The Unnatural Tragedy (British American Drama Academy), and The Legend of Jim Cullen (Heartwood Regional Theatre Company).

Hope you’ll take a listen and enjoy!

Also, if you would like tabs, feel free to message me to request them and I'll post them here: https://drive.google.com/?authuser=0#folders/0B8YEQFEX6ZybdGpmZ2pwTUVyczA

KEAT is the moniker of 24-year-old Singaporean singer-songwriter, Lim Jing Jie. With a touch of humour and a dash of vulnerability, KEAT captures an eclectic yet earnest fusion of modern pop, R&B and jazz. Influenced by the likes of Sam Smith, Lauv & Troye Sivan, his writing often offer more than what they seem - a sincerity edged by hints of humour and playfulness. 

Having performed at platforms such as Esplanade’s All Things New and the Baybeats Open Stage in 2019, KEAT’s soothing vocals and impressionable stage presence have continued to charm and enthral audiences, inviting them into a world of wonder, reflection and liberation. He hopes to continue sharing his music with those around him, adding joy, humour & positivity into an otherwise fast-paced world and is currently working on his debut EP, slated to be released in mid 2020.
