Meet Loose Trads, a dynamic folk band composed of four seasoned musicians who have fallen in love with traditional folk music from all corners of the world. They bring a fresh and contemporary interpretation of the rich Irish, Scottish, and American folk traditions.

​

With their sparkling mix of energetic jigs, reels, and polkas, interspersed with moving ballads and melancholic waltzes, they create an experience full of energy, emotion, and musical diversity. The influences of their travels to Scandinavia and the Baltic states are subtly woven into their repertoire, adding a unique touch to their sound.

​

Since their formation, they have gained their spurs playing at festivals, folk clubs, and cafes both at home and abroad. Whether you want to dance or dream away to the sounds of the violin, bouzouki, banjo, and accordion, a performance by Loose Trads is always an unforgettable experience!

 

The Lowland Paddies are:
Jasper Langenberg (button accordion, vocals)
Robbert Langenberg (banjo, mandolin, vocals)
Anneke Eijkelboom (fiddle)
Dennis Heijt (Bouzouki) 

​

They guarantee an unforgettable night of Folk Music!
