This multi-award-winning, 3x JUNO nominated and Billboard-charting
band create “energetic and exciting music…with talent to burn!”
(Maverick, UK). For more than a decade, Sultans of String have thrilled
audiences with their genre-hopping passport of Folk, Flamenco,
Django-jazz, Arabic, Cuban and Global Roots. The group celebrates
musical fusion and human creativity with warmth and virtuosity, exciting
audiences to their feet!
The band is led by JUNO-nominated 5-string violinist Chris McKhool
(Jesse Cook, Pavlo) who grew up in a Lebanese-Egyptian house
bursting with music and diversity. Growing up, Chris was fed a steady
diet of delicious musicality alongside Middle Eastern cuisine and violin
lessons.
When McKhool first heard founding guitarist Kevin Laliberté’s rumba
rhythm, their musical synergy created Sultans of String’s signature
sound – the intimate and playful relationship between violin and guitar.
From this rich foundation, the dynamic duo grew, featuring such
amazing musical friends as bassist Drew Birston (Jesse Cook, Chantal
Kreviazuk), and nyckelharpa player Saskia Tomkins (Uriah Heep, The
Chieftains)
