Description
Join us for a very special night featuring John Doyle and Michael McGoldrick.
John Doyle and Mike McGoldrick, together, represent the finest musicians performing in traditional Irish music today. Born in Manchester, UK, of Irish parents, Mike has been a road warrior since his teen years, and most notably distinguished himself in the top shelf bands, Lunasa and Capercaillie. With his powerful and yet subtle flute, whistles and uillean pipes, Mike has performed all over Europe, the US, Canada and worldwide with Kate Rusby, Mark Knopfler, Eric Clapton, and like John is a regular for many years with the Transatlantic Sessions at the Celtic Connections festival in Glasgow.
John likewise has been a professional since a teenager when he hit the road with Seamus Egan and Joanie Madden; he then went on along with Seamus to found the groundbreaking Irish American band, Solas. He has since forged a formidable solo career as producer, musician, songwriter and singer. John's signature percussive and emotive finger picking has been the choice on over 150 recordings of traditional Irish, bluegrass, oldtime, English folk and Americana with everyone from Eric Clapton to Tim O'Brien, Kate Rusby, Alison Brown, Liz Carroll, Linda Thompson, and a very long list of luminaries in folk music.
John and Mike individually are the very best in each of their respective instruments; collectively they are a powerhouse and truly not to be missed.
