Mazurka à Blin

La Jupette Barbue c'est un tendre et joyeux bal à la voix. 
Un trio vocal à l'accent parfois tribal mais jamais trivial.
C'est un gars qui rencontra deux filles.
Ou deux femmes qui rencontrèrent un homme.
Des chants poilus qui se dansent et qui se chantent.

Wouter en de Draak

Both the guitarist Joris Alblas and melodeonist Wouter Kuyper have had years of experience in playing balfolk in the Netherlands and surroundings each in different bands. Once they joined hands this duo was playing the stars from, and the dancers' feet to, the sky!

In a refreshing blend of their instruments it's usually the accordeon taking the lead, but they just as easy switch roles when the guitar eloquently plays the melody and the accordeon subtly fills in the harmony. This powerful combination is the startingpoint for some versatile dancemusic. From soothing mazurkas to beautiful bourrées, via whirling waltzes and humming hanterdros, and everything with a gentle drive.

Making music is our life!

Recent reviews of their CD said:

....Both gentlemen are virtuosos at their instruments. ...leave lots of room for improvisations...warm compositions. Most dynamic guitarist with a strongs sense for phrasing. A calm and sensitive accordeon sounds sensual and dreamy  

-Ron Janssen, New Folk Sounds

....A special record....their own compositions are of really high standard....very subtly played...

-Dani Heyvaert, Rootstime.be

"...Again and again both excellent musicians reach a beautiful symbiosis and catch the listenener with their virtuosity and brilliant ideas....The more intimate moments of intriguing musical dialogues between guitar and melodeon are top shelf..."
-René Warny, Folk magazine, Belgium


"...The music is light and airy, beautifully and gently floating like a butterfly in the summer sky. The music has that Flemish Bal Folk magic and provides an extremely enjoyable listening experience..."
