JESCO (NL) — Folk ‘n’ Roll

Music that sounds like cheap whiskey: sharp, filthy, but intoxicating

Jesco is a 3-piece band from The Netherlands centered around Utrecht.
They play a variety of genres, from blues to punk to folk music, with a rock ‘n roll attitude.

Bringing together instruments such as banjo, guitar, washboard, bells, harmonica, steel chains, and double bass to craft what’s best described as “Folk ‘n’ Roll”.

Jesco’s stories are mostly about the madness of the mind and the tragic denizens and outcasts that stumble around and within us. With a dark sense of humor, they hope to invite the audience to relate with, laugh about, or be appalled by the characters and tales which inhabit the melodies.

They play for the stage as well as the street, fully amplified, acoustic and anything in between. The past years they released 2 ep’s and their first full length album called Bored or Sad.

Raw folk music with a primeval urge to fill some souls and empty some glasses!
