Live Your Music – Margaux Joy and Guest Lief Sorbye 06/17/20

I am happy to have Lief Sorbye back as my guest for Live Your Music 06/17/20. Join us for a conversation about his band Tempest and hear two songs from their new Live On The Air album!

Hailing from Oslo, Norway, Tempest’s founding member and lead singer/electric mandolinist, Lief Sorbye, is recognized as a driving force in the modern folk-rock movement. He started Tempest after years of touring and recording on the folk circuit.

Since forming in 1988, Tempest has delivered a globally-renowned hybrid of high-energy Folk Rock fusing Irish reels, Scottish ballads, Norwegian influences and other world music elements. The last 32 years have seen the San Francisco Bay Area based act release 16 critically acclaimed CDs and play more than 2,500 gigs. It's also enjoyed an evolving line-up that's enabled musicianship and creativity to rise with each new member.

During this show you'll hear from Lief Sorbye about Tempest and the band’s current projects during their down time from touring, during our current need to Stay at Home.

You'll also hear two of my favorite songs from the new Tempest album Live On The Air.
