Boys of the Lough: Traditional Celtic Music
- Public Event
"...musically splendid...legends"
— Boston Globe"One of the finest bands in Celtic traditional music."
— New York Times
With almost forty years experience in the world of traditional music, over 60 North American tours, 19 recordings and two Grammy nominations, Boys of the Lough has reached legendary status. The group features Cathal McConnell on flute, whistles and vocals; Dave Richardson on concertina, mandolin, button accordian and cittern; Brendan Begley on button accordian, melodeon, and vocals; Malcolm Stitt on guitar, bouzouki and Highland pipe; and Kevin Henderson on fiddle.
The Boys have established a reputation for technical brilliance and integrity combined with a ready wit and sense of fun. The music ranges widely through traditional melodies of Ireland and encompasses fiddle music of Shetland, Scotland and North America. Compelling dance rhythms, which give the music such life, will lift you to your feet; the evocative slow airs and beautifully structured songs — some in the Irish language — will move you to your depths.
