We play fantastic instruments made by world-reknowned leather sculptor, Garry Greenwood. Some are like saxophones, some like didjeridus, some like bugles, bassoons, flutes, harps or drums. Some are very different. As a band, we work to find their voices and get them to converse and sing together. We draw from many musical cultures in our quest to bring these remarkable pieces to life. Tango, jigs, blues, salsa, marches, African, Celtic, and Macedonian music influence us. Our music is playful, haunting, beautiful, confronting and positive. Check us out soon!

In the meantime contact us by email info@chordqwainers.com to find out where we are playing next or to arrange for us to play at a venue near you sometime soon. Also, check out the Chordwainers' My Space page.
