WE BANJO 3 is an Award-winning quartet from Galway, Ireland that deliver a ground breaking mixture of Irish Music and Old- Time American and Bluegrass influences with remarkable virtuosity and passion. Enda & Fergal Scahill and Martin & David Howley are among the most celebrated and distinguished young musicians in Ireland today. Their competitive success is unrivaled, Martin holding 7 All Ireland titles, Enda with 4, while Fergal and David hold All Ireland titles on Banjo, Fiddle, Bodhran and Guitar. The band has just released their first live album 'Live in Galway'.

SCYTHIAN plays immigrant rock with thunderous energy, technical prowess, and storytelling songwriting, beckoning crowds into a barn-dance rock concert experience. These classically trained musicians from Washington DC are natural showmen who seamlessly blend kicked-up Celtic, folk and world music, and deliver it with a punk-rock sensibility. 'Old Tin Can', the band's latest, is Scythian?s tip of the cap to the tradition that inspired them. The album features Scythian?s take on favorite Celtic and Americana tunes that helped form their musical palette.

WoodSongs Kid: THE NEXT GENERATION LEAHY build on over three generations of Leahy musicianship - a renown musical family from Lakefield, Ontario, Canada. Doug Leahy, together with his wife Jennifer and their children (ages 4 -13) , are keeping those traditions alive through music, song, and dance.
