Kalos is drawn to water. Every performance is like stepping into a river—they never play a song the same way twice. They make music inspired by the maritime traditions of Scotland, Ireland, Scandinavia and North America. Their album titles—Harbour and Headland—honor the meeting point between the land and sea and they sing songs about shorelines, seafarers and drownings. But while the music they write is forged in tradition, it is nonetheless cast and tempered in new and unexpected ways.
“A Kalos concert is not a barn-raising with jigs and reels, however, but a more purely musical experience, following the lines of the melody through its permutations on three instruments, with perhaps a plaintive, heartfelt vocal from McDonald”…The Healdsburg Tribune
