But as the band has matured throughout the years\, their music has morphed stylistically. World Music has seeped into Tempest's over all sound because the band members are drawn to traditional and ethnic music from around the globe. There has been a natural progression towards coloring Tempest's music with elements from Scandinavia\, India\, African and Arabic countries. Middle Eastern flavors\, traditional Irish and Scottish Medleys mingle with Robert Burns poems\, Norwegian lyrics and heavy rock instrumentals on Tempest's finest record to date.\n\nLief Sorbye\, the founder of Tempest\, has introduced unusual instruments into their own blend of world folk music. Keeping the spirits of the audience and the band uplifted through energetic and entertaining performances that span the spectrum from Celtic and Folk Festivals to Rock Clubs has always been the ultimate goal for Tempest.\n\nTempest website: www.tempestmusic.com\n\nTempest Facebook: www.facebook.com/TempestCelticRock/\n\nTempest YouTube: www.youtube.com/user/tempestcelticrock\n\nthe Oak and Velvet venue\n\nwebsite: www.oakandvelvet.com/\n\nFacebook: www.facebook.com/OakAndVelvet/\n\nTwitter: twitter.com/OakandVelvet\n\nInstagram: www.instagram.com/oakandvelvet/
