A wonderful blend of instrumental song and sound, playful, deep and joyous, with original works inspired by the folk music of America, Europe and Beyond...

treVeld's music contains a fresh, unique and eclectic blend of genres, including Gypsy, Swing, Old Time, Celtic, Bluegrass, Blues, Chamber and Nordic Roots. Bill Plattes plays violin and mandolin, Dustin Smith plays guitars and Philip Rampi plays upright bass, octave mandolin, minstrel banjo, cello and percussion. treVeld has released an independently produced CD titled Bohemian Flats and will be releasing a second recording that is currently in production (2013).

A MUSICAL NOTE: "When installing wedding flowers at the artfully rustic Mill City Museum recently, we were stopped in our tracks by the amazing band beginning to warm up. And so began our love affair with treVeld, a group of string musicians whose musical repertoire includes Gypsy, Swing, Celtic, Blues and Nordic Roots. Their music is lush, playful, soulful and unforgettable. They are the band version of the beautiful food scene in the movie “Chocolat” in which Vianne serves a sumptuous feast to celebrate Armande’s birthday – exquisite foods laced with chocolate, an elegantly earthy outdoor setting with charmingly eclectic guests blissed out by the whole experience. That is treVeld. They have that rare quality of truly appealing to all ages."

"treVeld has successfully performed a progressive convergence of Old Time and formal Classical music with traditional Bluegrass on their latest recording Bohemian Flats."
Phil Nusbaum (on air commentary), Host of Blue Grass Saturday Morning on Jazz 88 FM

“I have gone to hundreds of concerts over the years and your performance is among the select few that will make my “all time best, most memorable” performances list, your music is beautiful... it really moved me... it was so calming. I am looking forward to hearing treVeld again.”
