The Fretless, with Louise Bichan, Alex Cumming & Eric McDonald
What an impact the Fretless had with A Christmas Celtic Sojourn this past December. They just rocked the 5 packed theatres around New England we played in. Just WOW! How this band as evolved from the dynamic iteration that played at the Burren just a few years ago. Specializing in string harmonies they bring us to fascinating places transforming fiddle tunes and folk melodies into intricate, beautiful, high-energy arrangements.
Check them out below.
Louise Bichan, Alex Cumming & Eric McDonald, an OUTSTANDING and newly formed trio will open.
The Fretless:

It has already created already dozens of memorable, intimate, informal presentations held in a truly atmospheric space which was founded by well-known traditional musicians Tommy McCarthy and Louise Costello in Davis Square, Somerville, Massachusetts.
Hosted by Brian O'Donovan of A Celtic Sojourn on WGBH radio, these gatherings feature core performers from many aspects of traditional music as well as special guests, and conversations around the music. As is the custom of the Burren, it is anticipated informal and dynamic post concert sessions will be a feature.
