Laura Cortese & Bert Ruymbeek

THE FORGE

Time flies and details are easily altered in our memories. Laura Cortese and Bert Ruymbeek capture the atmosphere of meaningful moments and turn them into memorable tales of sound. Sometimes with lyrics, sometimes instrumental.

Laura Cortese has built a distinguished career as an Americana fiddler, songwriter and vocalist. She might best be described as a sonic magpie: a curious and resourceful adventurer traversing great distances, collecting melodies and rhythms that glitter like jewels in the sun.

Bert Ruymbeek is an accordion player from Ghent whose groovy energy and lyrical playing is influenced by Northern-European folk music.

Like storytellers, Laura and Bert display an intimate dialogue in their music. They reflect on people, places, and stories that have an impact on their lives. Their music covers a wide emotional range, like a conversation effortlessly flowing with associations.
