The Folk Club Chur presents the international band "NoCrows" live in the Werkstatt Chur.

The band NoCrows started in the pub "Shoot the Crows" in Sligo, a town in the northwest of Ireland. Like many Irish bands, NoCrows started as a folk session. But soon all 4 band members composed their own instrumental tunes on guitar, fiddle, mandolin, cello and double bass.
The folk orchestra has since grown to six members, and the Crows have been singing since singer Ray Coen joined the band. They have taken their music from the pub to the international folk scenes, to festivals like Glastonbury (England), Dranouter (Belgium), folk clubs in Copenhagen, London, Belgium, Holland, Germany and Switzerland.

Their music is as international as the band members in this energetic ensemble. The style ranges from folk and traditional Irish to jazz, from Ireland to Eastern Europe and Catalonia.
Felip Carbonell from Mallorca is, so to speak, guitarist and drummer in one and makes the musical ground with his Manouche style on the Spanish guitar, together with bassist Eddie Lee, who feels as much at home in jazz as in folk.

Anna Houston, from Bern, has lived in Sligo in the northwest of Ireland for over 30 years, and brings the melodic lead with cello and mandolin along with fiddler, Oleg Ponomarev, who raises the pulse with his Gypsy Swing style. Second violinist, Steve Wickham, played with THE WATERBOYS for nearly 40 years, and has also recorded and played live gigs with numerous musicians, including Bob Dylan and U2.
Singer/songwriter and guitarist Ray Coen's evocative songs and fiery tunes round out the eclectic program.
