Kevin Burke

Kevin Burke's fiddle playing has been at the forefront of traditional music for over 30 years. He has been established as a first class musician ever since his work in the early 1970s (with such renowned performers as Arlo Guthrie, Christy Moore, and the Bothy Band, and with his far-reaching solo album, If the Cap Fits). During his long musical career Kevin has earned international acclaim in both Europe and America as a solo performer, a teacher and as a member of some of folk musics foremost groups including the exciting Celtic Fiddle Festival and Irelands long admired and respected Patrick Street. Although Kevin has spent much of his life playing in a group context, he has never lost his love for solo fiddle music the naked fiddle as he himself sometimes puts it. This is very evident in his live solo release, In Concert, a performance of mostly unaccompanied traditional pieces. Come hear one of Irelands true masters!
