The living legends of Giant Sand are coming back to Doornroosje. Since the mid-eighties, Giant Sand has been like a proud, lively cactus in the middle of a desert.
You could easily refer to Howe Gelb as the Godfather of alt-country. Led by him, the band makes dark, alternative roots rock of the highest order. Musically, Giant Sand always manages to enrich their sound with diverse elements, which include gypsy piano and organ, jazz, blues, punk, country, gospel and flamenco. Gelb’s typical voice guides you through all of these different types of sound. Whichever way the wind blows, Giant Sand always offers a whirlwind of sound of their own.
