All London's live music

Giddens has centred her work around the mission of lifting up people whose contributions to American musical history have previously been overlooked or erased, and advocating for a more accurate understanding of the country’s musical origins through art. She is joined by Turin-born Francesco Turrisi whose Dublin base reflects his global sensibilities. Through a chance musical meet-up in Ireland, they found that Giddens’s 19th-century American minstrel banjo tunes and Turrisi’s traditional Sicilian Tamburello (tambourine) rhythms fit very naturally together.
