Soundtracks is it’s name and it will allow you to travel back in time, on the historical carriages, accompanied by the vintage sound of Frog & Henry. A 40 km/h ride from Locarno’s railway station to Camedo (and return) through the spectacular landscape of the Centovalli. In Camedo, Frog & Henry will perform in the Old Train Deposit. From sonorities to deliciousness: Soundtracks will also provide you with food in the form of an aperitif that will include New Orleans’ own traditional Jambalaya.

The appointment with Soundtracks is set for Saturday, June 24 with departure from Locarno train station at 3:30 pm and return at 6:30 pm. 

Winner of the Audience Award 2022, Frog & Henry is a band taking part in the Acoustic Town project, an initiative of the festival that aims to present street music in Ascona just as it is offered on the streets of New Orleans.
