Duo du Balcon

Duo du Balcon is a duo made up of the Congrega brothers, who have been immersed in the world of bal folk and traditional music for about ten years. For the past four years, they’ve been getting audiences dancing to “funkttish” and “bluesurka” with this sparkling, guitar-driven project. Blending Irish-inspired sounds with a rock spirit—highlighted by energetic riffs and occasional “Floydian” passages—this small duo has a whole musical universe to share with you, right from the dance floor.

“It all stems from the strong bond between the two brothers, as well as their shared desire to play music with Irish tones, influenced by the rhythms of traditional French dances and rock riffs.”

“This Neo-Trad guitar duo has set itself the mission of touring dance halls, concert venues, and bars across France and beyond to spread good vibes and show that with just two string instruments, you can create as much sound as a traditional lineup featuring accordions, hurdy-gurdies, bagpipes, and other powerful instruments!”
