Their mutual love for all things Americana is what united Belgian guitarists Thomas Decock and Artan Buleshkaj. Avid frequenters of local jam sessions, they started by playing jazz standards before turning to a folk and country repertoire, deeply appreciated by both.
Their two guitars, plugged with little to no effects, create a raw and authentic atmosphere. Their repertoire blends the influences of folk legends such as Chet Atkins and Doc Watson, modern artists such as Joni Mitchell and Shawn Colvin, and jazz masters such as Thelonious Monk, Richard Rogers and Paul Motian. The result is a unique mix of folk and country harmonic structures, enhanced by the spirit of adventure and improvisation of jazz itself.
