Both an accomplished blues guitar player and a prolific singer/songwriter, Austrian-based Ripoff Raskolnikov must be considered one of the most idiosyncratic figures on the European blues scene.
Driven by such forces as love, passion, desire, loss, pain, the quest of beauty, hunger for life, or fear of death, Raskolnikov unleashes songs of powerful poetic and musical expression which, more often that not, defy stylistic categorization.
Raskolnikov gives a concert at 5.30 pm on 20 July, Saturday.
