With band. Only Danish festival and concert in 2025.
The American singer-songwriter Avi Kaplan was part of the vocal group Pentatonix from 2011until 2017; his deep, expressive bass voice was elemental in the group's success.
But Avi Kaplan had already developed a strong musical fundament from his time in vavrious choirs and as a soloist. Leaving Pentatonix in 2017 to pursue a solo career, Avi Kaplan found his way back to folk music. This was the music he felt closest to, playing under the gigantic sequoia trees of his childhood and youth in California.
Today he lives in a wooded Nashville suburb, writing his songs on the verandah, just him and the guitar. The fruits are a deep-seated blend of folk, country and soul, coloured by his characteristic voice and his heartfelt lyrics of love, loss and personal growth.
As a soloist, Avi Kaplan has gathered loyal fans, making him one of hte most promising new voices in modern folk and country music. His first solo album Floating on a Dream (2022) was produced by Shooter Jennings, son of outlaw country icon Waylon. This sensitive and atmospheric album, balancing perfectly between respect for USA’s deep musical heritage and modern songwriting.
Avi Kaplan is performing at Tønder Festival with his band, and this is their only Danish festival and concert in 2025.
