Spencer & Traci Hoveskeland – The Duet

 The Duet Spencer Hoveskeland & Traci Winters           The Seattle & International Scene
"The Duet' featuring Spencer and Traci Hoveskeland

Here is something different on this jazz site. It is difficult to label the The Duet. There is jazz, classical, folk, World Music.  The breadth of their repertoire is breathtaking. The Duet is best described as a contemporary ensemble performing great music in an authentic and musicologically accurate manner. In laymen’s terms? The Bottom Line Duo’s repertoire will entertain and satisfy all those of the species that breath air.

A hallmark of their performances is their professionalism and humor. Surprises abound in their work. 

Spencer Hoveskeland, a superb and highly regarded jazz bassist, also is a regular member of a Tango Band, and a Klezmer group, and is a guitarist too. 

Traci Winters is a first call free-lance cellist in the Pacific Northwest. She performs with various chamber ensembles and orchestras. Her experience as a soloist with The Duet, formally Bottom Line Duo, has made her a much sought after recording and performing artist.

They are one of three internationally touring cello and bass duos in the history of music. Their live performances leave audiences breathless with their artistry, and filled with laughter from their humor.
