   About Northern Celts

My Favorite MySpace 2.0 Layouts
MySpaceLayouts

Northern Celts are a band that has evolved from a wide collection of musicians who started playing together in London in the 1980s. They have been instrumental in keeping the traditional music session alive in London pubs, with material that embraces traditional Irish and Scottish dance tunes, Irish and British traditional and contemporary folk songs, and American folk and country music. The band plays in various pubs and venues that can be found on their website, and welcome musicians who want to come along and join in. The line-up is Les Coughlan, who founded the group over 20 years ago, and who plays the bodhran and harmonica. He is also a skilled maker of drums. Marie McCormack plays the Irish whistle and has collected countless tunes over the years playing in sessions and various bands. Shuggy Fisher plays mandolin and banjo and writes original tunes. Willy Barr is a guitarist and singer, and he also plays a mean banjo, mandolin and harmonica. Emma Scarr plays fiddle with the band and writes songs with a folk and country flavour. Fergy Campbell is a singer and guitarist. The Northern Celts also play for weddings, ceilidhs, parties and other celebrations. Their music is lively, uplifting, sometimes thought-provoking and always evolving as musicians bring new influences and ideas.

Hello, after an unfortunate hiatus, the reasons for which are probably best not gone into here, we finally have some new music on the AUK MySpace site. For your listening pleasure this month we offer Nathan Oliver, Conrad Ford, the irrepressible Todd Snider and the delightful Beccy Owen. Don't forget too, for those of you within striking distance of Leicester, Electric Dustbowl 2 on 19 September.

The Kittiwakes - CD Launch - Clerkenwell 22nd June

Leigh-on-Sea 3-piece,
The Kittiwakes, celebrate the release of their Midwich Records debut, ‘Lofoten Calling’, a collection of original folk songs written about the people, landscape, folklore and history of the Lofoten Islands above the Arctic Circle and influenced by the traditional music of Norway and the British Isles.

'The Kittiwakes craft timeless and magical acoustically dappled folk treats - gentle and alluring ostensibly Gaelic in sound texture and gorgeously flighty braided as they are by corteges of mandolins, accordions and violins.' [LOSING TODAY]

'The Kittiwakes (rissa tridactyla): delicious, intriguing and evocative music, beautifully played and sung by this talented trio. Recommended to twitchers and lovers of folk music alike' [LEIGH FOLK FESTIVAL]


See http://www.electroacousticclub.com for details of the venue etc
