Friday Night Concert - Yachats Celtic Music Festival 2013
Join in the celebration of 12 years of music and magic at the Yachats Celtic Music Festival.
Friday Night Concert features Kevin Burke and Cal Scott, followed by 'Brother'.
************************************************
Renowned Irish fiddler Kevin Burke has teamed up with American guitarist Cal Scott for an exciting new collaboration in traditional music.
With his silky bowing, spot-on tone and engaging wit, Kevin Burke is considered one of the finest living Irish fiddlers and one of the best loved by music fans around the world. His career spans three decades, from seminal Irish group The Bothy Band and Christy Moore to duo recordings with the late Bothy Band guitarist Michael O Domhnaill, to work with artists from Kate Bush, Arlo Guthrie, and Tim O'Brien. The New York Times calls him "a superior instrumentalist in any idiom......impressively virtuosic." Kevin was awarded a National Heritage Fellowship by the National Endowment to the Arts (NEA) in 2002, this country's highest honor for folk and traditional music with past honorees including BB King.
A fifth-generation Oregonian, Cal Scott plays guitar, mandolin and bouzouki, and has played in folk, rock and jazz ensembles for three decades. He has recorded and produced over twenty CDs including nine with The Trail Band, an eight-piece Northwest American roots and folk group. Cal is also a composer for film, having scored over thirty documentaries for PBS. In 2006 his soundtrack CD from the film "Scotland's Lighthouses" took fourth place in the Celtic Instrumental Album of the Year category in the Just Plain Folks Music Awards.
************************************************
Chances are you've seen BROTHER on NBC's 'ER', maybe heard their music on the classic 'Baraka' soundtrack or UPN's ' Twilight Zone.' The band has shared stages with Joe Walsh, John Entwhistle, Linkin Park, and Alicia Keys and are the only independent band to have played the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Fusing signature vocals and guitar with the deep pulse of the didgeridoo, the soaring highs of the bagpipes, and tribal percussion, BROTHER is wholly original. The band's powerhouse live performances are an energetic celebration, captivating and engaging the audience from the first song to the last.
BROTHER live today is a powerhouse Celtic tribal trio. The band's legendary live shows have reached a whole new level, with soul brothers Angus, Dalbo and Drew filling the stage with their energy and sound.
