Tightrope Moon @ Wynnstay, Machynlleth

Event information

Tightrope Moon cast a silver web over their audiences as violin, viola and vocals entwine in celestial sounds and hypnotic melodies. From gronky re-imaginings of English, Swedish and American tunes to delicate compositions and ethereal improvisations, their spiralling melodies feel like secrets whispered in the dark. The duo’s electrifying groove-based tunes create a sound that is otherworldly, yet deeply rooted in tradition.

Their songs spin out stories old and new, as haunting vocal harmonies floating over delicate pizzicato latticework. Tales of the forest merge with daydreams in the big city as they infuse acoustic instruments with eerie experimental electronics.
