Taking the honest and open style of raw acoustic music and mixing it with the power of rock music, Phil and Bert (AKA The Haiku) offer up a musical dish which is often unexpected, but which always leaves the listener feeling well nourished.
With an eye-catching line-up of vocals, acoustic guitar and drums, audiences are often taken by surprise at the intensity of the sound created by such a minimal arrangement. Certainly, time spent with The Haiku leaves you in no doubt that the acoustic guitar does not have to be a quiet instrument. What you will take away is a memory of incredibly personal songs, which somehow manage to speak to each individual member of the audience. Anyone whos ever loved and lost; or been frustrated with the state of the world; or been annoyed with the unfairness of life; or enjoyed the feeling of hope for the future, will understand and appreciate what The Haiku have to offer.
