The duo KELPIE, Kerstin Blodig & Ian Melrose,
discovered their mutual attraction towards musical experimentation, letting unusual harmonic textures and rhythms flirt with traditional Celtic and Scandinavian music. Ian`s exquisite fingerstyle guitar combined with Kerstin`s groovy plectrum technique is the basis of the special Kelpie sound. When Kerstin’s clear and vibrant voice intertwines with Ian’s languid low whistle, when Ian’s imaginative guitar riffs dance around Kerstin’s mischievous bouzouki lines, there arises an exciting blend of old and new - intricate vocal and instrumental arrangements with room for improvisation and spontaneous ideas.
