CD - Bitter Dreams

Ball Noir’s debute show was on the Summer Darkness festival in Utrecht. The crowd went mad and the atmosfere was extatic. After that a lot of live shows followed, among them in venues like Tivoli (Utrecht), Melkweg (Amsterdam), LVC (Leiden) and on festivals like Castlefest, more Summer Darkness and as a headliner on Folkwoods.  

Two years after their legendary debute show they released their first album with the audience favourites like Bitter Dreams (cercle) and The Last Day (gavotte).  

The music of Ball Noir is balfolk-metal. Or, as some say: metal-balfolk. All songs are written for balfolk dancing and Ball Noir loves to accompany the tunes with pounding beats and heavy guitars. This makes them a popular guest at balfolk evening as well as on metal meetings.
