BIOGRAPHY

The Banjo consorsium is a group that obtained international notoriety with both of it’s albums, A Turning One, and the subsequent remix compilation, aptly titled A remixed one. Directed by Japh‘s refined ear, the band has benefited from serious rotations in Canada in Europe, as the band’s myspace page can attest.

Currently in pre-production for a third album, the Banjo Consorsium doesn’t cease to impress and satisfy the ear of a growing number of folktronic amateur, a style that crosses folk music (notably with the use of banjo’s, mandolins) and the use of modern production techniques, including sampling.

The outfit must, however, be seen live, as they evolve onstage in a different direction then on album, as the material becomes more dynamic and open, musically speaking.
