Among them Jim Lauderdale, Altan, Dustbowl Revival, Tejon Street Corner Thieves and Twang, as well as seven Folk Spot Denmark candidates.
Tønder Festival is presenting one of the major songwriters on the American country scene, Jim Lauderdale (photo), who has been performing since the 1970s, and whose songs have been recorded by a long list of well-known singers.
We announce the return of the American band Dustbowl Revival, with two previous Tønder Festival appearances to their credit. Another American band are coming to the Tønder Festival for the first time: the trash bluesgrass band Tejon Street Corner Thieves.
Traditional Irish folk music will have distinguished representation, in the two veteran groups Altan and Kíla. From England we have Roo Panes, an up-and-coming songwriter on the British folk scene.
We'll have a newish group and a soloist from Denmark, the trio Twang, who twist the tail of the American folk music tradition, and the songwriter Kristian Bach, who won the 2022 folk music award Årets Helge (The Annual Helge, in memory of the late Helge Arildsø, a personality on the Danish folk scene, who died young in 2014.)
Seven names from the burgeoning grassroots of Danish and Nordic folk music will perform at this year's Tønder Festival in Folk Spot Denmark, a cooperative showcase feature of the festival for many years now.
If you are considering buying a day ticket to the 2023 Tønder Festival, sales open at 10 a.m. on May 1st.
