The Trouble Notes

The story of The Trouble Notes is one of a decade-long odyssey. From the bustling streets of London and New York City to the mainstages of the world’s most renowned festivals, the trio has spent 12 years developing themselves into Modern Bards.
The Trouble Notes are a progressive folk rock trio whose music bridges the gap between folklore and the expansive frontiers of a new world. Known for their cinematic, narrative-driven performances, the group—Bennet Cerven (Violin/Vocals, USA), Florian Eisenschmidt (Guitar, GER), and George Bingham (Drums, UK)—has carved out a distinctive identity through technical virtuosity that remains deeply human.

With performances in over 35 countries and appearances on international television across three continents, the band has shared the stage with legends such as Jethro Tull, Rodrigo y Gabriela, and Versengold. Their music is a visceral journey—blending intricate folk motifs and classical precision with the driving, rhythmic energy of modern rock.
