The Rhythm and Booze Project features Felipe and Paul, a duo fusing live music and whisky through gigs, tasting events, and multimedia experiences.The project was born during a 2012 pilgrimage to the whisky capital of Islay, when Felipe and Paul played in bars and hotels in exchange for a meal, a bed, and healthy drams of whisky.Regular collaborations since then, including tours in the UK, United States, and South America, led to the creation of The Rhythm and Booze Project, which combines Felipe&#39;s and Paul&#39;s extensive background as professional touring musicians, event producers, and passionate fans of whisky in all forms.As a musical outfit, the band incorporates roots, folk, and blues music in a uniquely gritty mix of its own, blending hypnotic grooves with raucous energy and irresistible showmanship.For their whisky tasting events, Felipe and Paul merge performance, live music, and multi-sensory experiences. Past projects encompass blues and whisky tasting events for Islay&#39;s Caol Ila distillery, building the world&#39;s first Scotch whisky cask bass drum out of a Lagavulin barrel, and creating workshops that alter the taste of whisky itself using music.With five professional degrees between them, Felipe and Paul have an academic background to match. Felipe wrote his Masters degree thesis on sustainable distillation on Islay conducting field interviews after Islay&#39;s Feis Ile whisky festival, while Paul has just completed his PhD in the history of jazz drumming and the drum kit in New Orleans.Felipe is also a leading writer about all aspects of whisky for top industry publications. He is a senior contributor for Forbes.com, and writes as well for Whisky Magazine, The Whiskey Wash, and others. He is also a Keeper of the Quaich.Doors open at 6:45 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm.An important note - while there will be oatcakes available to help soak up the booze, we strongly recommend getting a hearty dinner beforehand. There are only limited spaces for this intimate and whisky-soaked event, so book now! DISCLAIMER: We&#39;ll turn away anyone with no refund who shows up drunk or not in a fit state to appreciate the music and whisky. You&#39;ve been warned.
