Toolbox Orchestra (Past event AJF 2026)
This Event has now ended
A truly unique ensemble, The Toolbox Orchestra from Berlin began with instruments built from workshop tools—singing saw, washtub bass and more—before expanding to include banjo, guitar, trumpet and clarinet.
This all-female group channels the playful energy of 1920s and 1930s music, creating a sound that is both nostalgic and fresh. Their first Scottish appearance promises a joyful, spirited performance full of character.
Family friendly performance. Under 5s free.
