Nicolle Neill Roen is a vocalist and multi instrumentalist steeped in the musical traditions of the Balkans. Through her voice, accordion, Macedonian tambura, and frame drum, she will transport you through story and song to Turkey, Albania, Macedonia, Bulgaria, and beyond. Nicolle is a native of Winona Minnesota, residing in Santa Fe, New Mexico since 2003. She tours regularly in the Midwest and is thrilled to be visiting Decorah again this spring.
Sophie will be joining Nicolle to perform some of the beautiful harmonies from these regions. If you have delighted in the tight and unusual Balkan harmonies before, this will be a great chance to hear more! If you haven’t, please come treat yourself to something new.
