FOCUS - OCTOBER 2015 11 The very popular and highly extraordinary Sheesham and Lotus Son will return to Greenbank Folk Music Society on Saturday October 17. Show time 8 p.m. The end of the 20th century saw the formation of Sheesham and Lotus a simple musical duo whose main concern was to revive fiddle music and the good-time songs of years past. In the years following they have become one of the most popular Old-time Roots acts in North America. Noted for their highly original presentation Sheesham and Lotus and Son have created a sonic and visual language that is very much their own utilizing instruments of their own creation such as the Sepia- phonic Monophone and the Contrabass HarmoniPhoneum. Such inventions have been instrumental in building a show that is vividly antique in both sight and sound along with their excellent musician- ship setting them apart as true innovators of their craft. Not only that they are as one reviewer put it recently riotous fun In 2012 Sheesham and Lotus and Son recorded the critically ac- claimed 1929.
