Na prvem koncertu 31. cikla Keltika bomo poslušali pri nas živečega ameriškega kantavtorja Chrisa Eckmana, ki ga bodo spremljali njegovi redni slovenski sodelavci. Eckman velja za enega najvidnejših izvajalcev americane, prepoznavne zmesi folka, rocka, bluesa in drugih zvrsti, ki jo je po svoje gojil že v bendu The Walkabouts. Čeprav je že med delovanjem te zasedbe (1984–2015) v duu s Carlo Torgerson snemal bolj intimistične, kantavtorske albume s poetičnimi besedili, se je takemu izrazu popolnoma posvetil na albumih, ki jih že več kot četrt stoletja podpisuje z lastnim imenom. A vendar pri teh albumih ne gre za solistična dela, saj Eckmana praviloma spremlja pisan nabor cenjenih slovenskih in mednarodnih glasbenikov, znanih iz folk in rock projektov. Po albumu Where the Spirit Rests (2021; nagrada nemških kritikov) je leta 2025 objavil odlično sprejet The Land We Knew the Best, ki ga je britanski mesečnik Uncut ob izidu razglasil za album meseca februarja ter ob koncu leta uvrstil na 26. mesto 80 najboljših albumov v letu 2025.

--------------------------

At the first concert of the 31st Keltika series, we will listen to the American singer-songwriter Chris Eckman, who lives in Slovenia, accompanied by his regular Slovenian collaborators. Eckman is considered one of the most prominent performers of Americana, a recognizable blend of folk, rock, blues and other genres, which he already cultivated in his own way in the band The Walkabouts. Although he recorded more intimate, singer-songwriter albums with poetic lyrics in the duo with Carla Torgerson during the operation of The Walkabouts (1984–2015), he has completely dedicated himself to such expression on the albums that he has been signing with his own name for more than a quarter of a century. However, these albums are not solo works, as Eckman is usually accompanied by a colorful group of respected Slovenian and international musicians, known from folk and rock projects. Following the album Where the Spirit Rests (2021; German Critics' Award), he released the well-received The Land We Knew the Best in 2025, which the British monthly magazine Uncut in February declared as the album of the month and at the end of the year ranked it 26th on its list of 80 best albums of 2025.
