Albi & The Wolves - MNZ Interview: It's A Wrap with Roger 019: Chris Dent from Albi and the Wolves

17 Nov 2022 // An interview by roger.bowie



Albi and the Wolves are on a nationwide tour commencing December 2nd and ending at the Auckland Folk Festival at the end of January. Roger Bowie raps with Chris Dent about what he’s been listening to, whether good enough is good enough, and everything you need to know about the upcoming tour.

 

About Albi & The Wolves

This is folk music, but not as you know it. Pulling inspiration from a wide spectrum of genres, from swing to bluegrass, soul, R&B, rock and world music, Albi and The Wolves offer a decadent serving of double bass, banjo, and fiddle accompanied by Albi's smooth vocal stylings. These elements come together to create both a potent foot stomping rhythm and a captivating music and stage presence never experienced before.

With this love and respect of music in all its forms, Albi and The Wolves not only offer vibrant and refreshing original songs which burst open the seams of traditional folk music, but they also inject their signature sound into modern classics from artists as diverse as Micheal Jackson, and Pink Floyd.

Since the band's formation in 2014, they have excelled in New Zealand's live music scene, pulling in large crowds with their unique performance style, making it irresistible to dance.
