Intense and playful ensemblework, hauntingly beautiful melodies and sincere presentation of their music forms the main basis of the Curly Strings soundscape. The band’s rise in the Estonian music scene in 2013 was a phenomenon unlike any other: a folk music artist becomes mainstream by collecting music awards and being the top seller in music stores for more than a year.
In 2016 Curly Strings won European World Of Bluegrass (EWOB) contest, and they belong to one of the most popular bands in Estonia cross genres. They have performed in Canada, the US, Japan, and many European countries during their career. They have released three albums and the fourth one is under its way to be released in early 2021.
