Rani Arbo and Daisy Mayhem

Harmony, rhythm, indelible songs these are the
hallmarks of Rani Arbo & daisy mayhem, the
New England based folk quartet now in its
15th year. From the Newport Folk Festival to the
California World Music Festival and beyond, this
bands steadfast brew of wit, camaraderie, and
musicality leaves audiences everywhere humming
and hopeful, spirits renewed.
Rani Arbo & daisy mayhem are Rani Arbo (fiddle, guitar), Andrew Kinsey (bass, banjo, ukulele),
Anand Nayak (electric and acoustic guitars) and
Scott Kessel (percussion). At the helm, Arbo is
blessed with an unmistakable voice, both light and sultry, with a hint of tremolo and smoke". With Kinsey and Nayaks vibrant baritones and Kessels resonant bass, the bands signature lockstep harmonies can shake the rafters or hush the room. Arbos fiddle is sweet and sinewy, while Nayaks guitar stretches across genre lines. Kinseys old-time bass anchors the deep groove of Kessels homemade percussion
kit a truly funky collection of cardboard boxes, tin cans, caulk tubes, packing-tape tambourines, bottle-cap rattles, Mongolian jaw harps, and a vinyl suitcase
