Emerald Rose (Brian Sullivan, Arthur Hinds, Larry Morris and Clyde Gilbert) formed in late 1996, releasing their first self-titled CD in 1998. Since then, they have released four independently produced CDs: "Bending Tradition" (2000), "Fire in the Head - Emerald Rose Live!" (2002), "Celtic Crescent" (2003), and "Archives of Ages to Come" (2005).
Emerald Rose is one of the top Celtic folk-rock bands in the Southeast US. A rich "world fusion" sound with influences ranging from the Chieftains to Jethro Tull has given this band a ten year career and national following. The band's original lyrics address everything from Celtic myth to modern science, often with a touch of humor. Blending vocal harmonies, pennywhistle and world percussion with driving guitars and bass, their sound is "rock-n-reel" but not ear-splitting. Emerald Rose music has been included in two soundtracks, 'Ringers' (about Lord of the Rings fans) and 'Done the Impossible', about the Firefly/Serenity series. They were headliners for the Lord of the Rings Oscar parties in Hollywood in 2003 and 2004. The band performs across the USA and has led multiple tours of Ireland. The band frequently performs at Celtic festivals and sci-fi / fantasy conventions.
"Hauntingly beautiful poetic lyrics and the knack for crafting a solid and fluid arrangement. They are tight, close and cohesive as a group, and their latest release represents their roles as musical veterans reaching for the path of musical legends." - Performer Magazine
