After 2 months of successful touring in Europe as both a trio and a quartet in January and February 2015 Beyondsemble are touring New Zealand for the 6th time!! We have nearly 30 gigs lined up including headlining at Luminate Festival in the South Island. The majority of the South Island we will be touring as a trio this time around.
“nothing short of pyrotechnic display of dazzling virtuosity by three highly imaginative and gifted musicians.”
These three talented musicians have the skill to make music of the highest quality look easy. They play together with complete trust...This concert was exhilarating and seemingly faultless”
With responses like this to the well over 300 gigs Beyondsemble have played since launching in New Zealand in 2009 it is no surprise the band has shot into the limelight on the local festival scene and is getting a lot of attention offshore.
Out of 74 bands Beyondsemble won the 2013 peoples choice competition for the right to perform at WOMAD in Taranaki.
Beyondsemble play an eclectic and diverse mix of tunes and songs both original and sourced from around the globe executed with virtuosic skill, innovation, creativity, infectious energy, a sense of adventure and an exuberance of spirit. Music to move you and make you move.
Beyondsemble is really a vehicle for the musical collaborations of its founding member Craig Denham and as such has no fixed membership. There is a pool of amazingly talented musicians who are in the band from time to time (depending on availability and commitment to their own various projects) and yet others who are yet to be. Watch this space to see who will be in the next tour! Usually the band tours as a trio or a quartet but we have been known to do the odd gig with 6 of us! We always like to keep the music fresh and with an edge.
Beyondsemble has performed in all manner of venues from intimate cabaret settings and small theatres to large outdoor festival stages. In 2010 they played to over 30,000 people over 2 weeks as the official pre-show band for the prestigious World of WearableArt Awards held in Wellington at the TSB Arena.
The band is extremely hard-working and tours extensively both within New Zealand and Europe every year now being based out of Prague in the Czech Republic for 9 months a year
