SWAMP

Swamp is a band from the Netherlands, and it draws inspiration from the various kinds of music that come from the swamps of Louisiana (zydeco, cajun) and from Central America.
Zydeco and cajun are mostly in French/English.
They are
hybrid forms of the music brought to Louisiana by French/Canadian immigrants.
Tex-mex is based on the music of German immigrants (polka's), mixed with
influences from South and Central America.
In short, this is a melting pot of all kinds of musical
styles that provides the audience with a night of undiluted fun and a strong
urge to dance.
The band was founded in 1996, and it looks back on an
impressive list of successful gigs all over Europe at a variety of jazz, blues
and country festivals, such as: the Moulin Blue Festival, the Oerol Festival ,
Jazzfestival Breda, Kempten, Wendelstein and the itinerant theatre festival The
Parade.
These guys are real musicians who have a lot of fun to play
and present their song with a lot of enthusiasm.
When you attend a concert
of Swamp you're sure to experience a Red Hot Louisiana Night !
