Robin Layne & the Rhythm Makers
“If you had to create the perfect outdoor festival band, you’d probably come up with Robin Layne & the Rhythm Makers” – Tim Reinert, Infidels Jazz
With roots in rhythmic traditions around the globe this groove heavy ensemble delivers music that transcends the bounds of tradition, blurring the lines between jazz and folk as they carve out new territory for the marimba at the forefront of the sonic landscape. They have been making a name for themselves on the festival circuit over the past few years since their debut release Memories in 2018, appearing on the main stage at Mission Folk Festival this past summer and at the Downtown Jazz, Vancouver International Jazz Festival. They also completed their first major foray into the states this past fall, touring all over Montana.
