Acclaimed as one of Australia's most exciting and innovative trad-folk acts, Trouble in the Kitchen have earned their reputation as world class performers of traditional Irish music. With a versatile line-up that fuses searing tunes with driving guitar and bouzouki, it's the energy of their live shows that sets Trouble apart.
Now long at the forefront of Irish music in Australia, they've toured throughout Japan, Europe and New Zealand, and along the way they have built a reputation as firm crowd favourites. Trouble are increasingly drawing on original material as well as tunes and songs recorded in the Aussie Irish tradition, giving their sound a distinctive local twist.
The band's latest album 'The Next Turn' received the much-coveted Golden Fiddle Award at Tamworth 2009, as well as being named the 2008 Folk Album of the Year by the National Film and Sound Archive. To purchase CDs online and check out further Trouble projects, go to www.troubleinthekitchen.com.
