About me: Chestnut Productions are creating a Global Local Music Scene.
www.chestnutproductions.co.uk is the Bible of World Music. Venues, opinions and music from local scenes around the globe.
Use this site to help set up tours or to listen to music from our Global Local Music Scene.
We toured 6 countries gathering opinions on the state of the music industry in its 'golden age'. The trailer for the documentary 'GLOCAL' is shown below:
The team are filmmakers, graphic designers, writers, poets and musicians. Our company combines all of the skills we have. We shall be soon a fully fledged label releasing our top tunes to the UK and beyond. In the meantime, we shall be touring the world filling up our Atlas of Music. Contact us at info@chestnutproductions.co.uk to sponsor our company or to be part of our musical findings.
Who I'd like to meet: Talented musicians, artists, comedians, writers, performers... people who want to be heard. Because we want to listen.
J'ai mis une vidéo sur l'asso Coeur Afrik dont je m'occupe ainsi que deux nouveaux titres que j'ai produit aussi pour l'asso: un remixd'"Abidjan" et "Pourquoi". Dis moi tes impressions quand tu as le temps
"Ticklin' The Strings" by Sweet Hollywaiians
Amazing Japanese hot string band playing 1920's, 30's, 40's style hawaiian, swing, calypso, blues, italian music and originals,featuring vintage instruments.3 songs with Robert Armstrong and Tony Marcus(from Robert Crumb and His Cheap Suit Serenaders)
"The Sweet Hollywaiians have probably the best feel for this 20's music of any string band working today. They manage the rare feat of sounding relaxed even when their playing is hot, are top notch musicians with tasteful arrangements and a full, rich, warm sound.Plus, they have a nice gamut of tunes, from King Nawahi to Giovanni Vicari to Bobby Leecan. See them live, if you can, for an unforgettable experience. If you can't, buy their Cds!" ~ Terry Zwigoff
