Want to create a relaxed retro atmosphere? Then book Whispering Woods, a great acoustic blues trio that has no equal!

The "Roaring twenties" and the following "Great Depression" are musically very interesting times. The acoustic guitar was formed as we know it today and the resonance guitar was invented during this period. The blues became hugely popular during this time and some of the first blues records were released during this time.

The blues is the starting point of Western music as it is known today. At that time, the blues was played in many different forms. Think ragtime, hokum blues (double meaning blues), country and urban blues, worksongs, ...

Wispering Woods cherish these musical treasures of the past. They bring an old-fashioned vibe that takes you back to this day and age. They tell interesting stories, perform good songs with both acoustic and slide guitar and harmonica.

The prime examples are? Robert Johnson, Mississippi John Hurt, Son House, Big Bill Broonzy, Blind Blake, Tampa Red, Sonny Boy Williamson, Leadbelly, Bessie Smith, Jimmy Rushing, ...
