"Puirt a Bheil" by Poor Man's Fortune

"Cool as jazz and twice as fun." That's how some people would describe Poor Man's Fortune. After spending ten years as the best "Euro-trad" band in the US, this band boasts of three of the finest traditional musicians in the US. In fact, their talent and their profound repertoire of eclectic tunes spanning Europe, as well as the occasional, "What the hell?" song thrown in gives them an appeal that captures the attention of everyone in the audience, young...old...man...woman.

They play old tunes for new ears and new tunes in old traditions. Their music is unique. Some would say it's traditional without the cobwebs. What is a given is that every tune is fiery and gets people's toes tapping. I guarantee it.

"Dancin' Cross the Strings" by Steve and Ruth Smith

Steve and Ruth Smith have a mission. Both being born of Scots-Irish heritage, they hope to take those who listen to their music on a journey. Not just through time...but through the history of the music itself. Their music stems from the traditional sounds of Ireland and Scotland that migrated into the Appalachian Mountains, through the early music of the Southern Highlands, and on to new original songs that are representative of the Celtic Appalachian musical heritage and experience.

Steve and Ruth have been performing together for over 30 years now. They have performed their Celtic Appalachian music extensively in the U.S. from North Carolina to Hawaii. In addition to that, they also have been cultural music representatives of the Appalachian region, touring and performing for many years abroad in Japan, Korea, the Philippines, Hong Kong, Thailand, Australia, New Zealand, Tonga, and Canada.

Their music definitely takes the listener on a journey they will not soon forget.

"Rest" by Brian Thomas

Brian Thomas hails from Surrey, British Columbia, Canada and is a Celtic-folk singer-songwriter. He uses his music as a vehicle for storytelling, with songs that easily re-capture the tradition of songs written generations ago from various cultures. His peaceful, melodic music frames touchingly human stories and packs his lyrics with imagery, transporting his listeners to another time...another place.

By blending finger-style guitar, hammered dulcimer, piano, recorders and deep, rich vocals, he creates a refreshingly original sound. With no formal music training as a child, it was only recently that he began to get serious about making music. In the years that have passed since he first picked up a guitar at the age of 17, he has added several other instruments to his repertoireas well as almost a hundred original songs. His music is worth the listen. He's beyond good. He's amazing.
