New Acoustic Trio, Take 3! Take 3 artists Tom Draughon, Lisa McGinley, and Kevin McMullin are consumate musicians whose delicate vocal arrangements and clear warm harmonies set them apart from almost all other groups in the contemporary acoustic music scene. As individual artists, each has been performing for over 25 years, honing their musical skills and showmanship in front of a wide array of audiences. All three are multi-instrumentalists and strong vocalists with extensive performing and recording backgrounds and performance credits. Take 3's instrumentation includes guitar, fiddle, bass, whistle, bodhran, autoharp, and banjo, and their musical styles range from traditional Appalachian to Celtic to Swing. Joining together in a tightly knit presentation of original and traditional music and songs, their impeccable musicianship and innovative vocal and instrumental arrangements combine to create a concert that will be enjoyed by even the most discerning listener. Their premier performances were a rave at the Ashland Folk Festival, Northland College, Ashland, WI, and Ashland Chamber Music Society series. Sound clips available below; please see the Heartistry Music Booking page for details on arranging a concert.
