Sounds LikeSounds................ ’The Keltrix sound is high-octane folk rock with strong acoustic, percussive flavour. Keri’s fiesty spirit shows throughout both music and perfromance. They perform with a co-operation not often seen in the rock music world. The bands songwriter, Keri Williamson leads with husky vocals reminiscent of Janis Joplin and a touch of Sandy Denny, is an independent and thought provoking young woman.’ ANNE RYAN - MOVING TONE NEWS. MAY 2007. ’Keltrix - With their reputation for knowing how to get a party started preceding them, the dancefloor is full from the onset and soon enough there is jigging aplenty. Check out Keltrix!’ ART AND SOUL MAGAZINE. FEB 2008. ’Keltrix instantly injected the room with a uniquely magic atmosphere. Singer Keri Williamson has an expert milky warm voice. The 5 band members matched perfectly their superb music with looks and talents that contributed to making their act a uniquely festive and excellent one.’ SURFACE UNSIGNED FESTIVAL. 2008 ’It has become standard for young bands to try to fit into one genre to be the next big thing. Then pops up Keri Williamson with her band Keltrix, who are definatly not playing by the rules. Flipping easily between folk, reggae and good old fashioned indie rock. The Keltrix EP is an interesting listen, anaptly showcases a band who are not afraid to be different. TOM ADAMS - MOVING TONE NEWS. 2008

   About Keltrix
Providing a fresh spiral of ecclectic folk rock, Keltrix are an energetic five-piece band who formed in March 2006. Famed for pumping the audience into a frenzy, Keltrix are lead by Keri, an eccentric yet enigmatic singer songwriter, defying the model of folk rock through an unsulleid and cool blend of harmonious explosion. Three years ago this fiesty fembot learnt guiter, developing a vast backlog of lyrics and melodies into the songs they deserved to be. Then came rhythm-maker Jake, the musical protege with a fusion of drum styles. To join the swell of sound, Sharon, a dance music producer and violinist who had previously worked with Keri on a blend of raw and dirty dance music, arrived with her years of experience playing the violin. Finally along came Nick with an easy brilliance on the bass followed swiftly by Duncan the ninja on electric guitar. Ta Da! The aim is to strike a chord that appeals to all walks of life with a variety of soundscapes, eclectic, ancestral, contempory music and thought provoking lyrics; songs to dance to and songs to relate and relax to. Keltrix have built up a fan base through festival performances at the likes of Strawberry Fair, Small World, Secret Garden Party and Sunrise Festival and online, Keri has also made regular apperences on Bbc radio Cambridgeshire, 105 fm and star fm. A uk tour is in the pipeline.

Pretty much. The bigger bits of the frame were from a pine table that someone threw in a skip some time in the late twentieth century and the fingerboard is one of the slats from a bed that some relatives of a friend of mine threw out in 2008. The heads from the same bed. Good to hear you at the Barge Inn.
