Celtish

'One of the finest contemporary folk bands around'

The Royal Albert Hall

With multifaceted vocals glittering between an array of complementary instruments, Celtish is not a band to be ignored. Chosen from thousands to represent the talent and beauty of folk music as part of the 'COPAS' live event, would you argue with the Royal Albert Hall?? Good enough to headline the launch of the Ryder Cup - supported by Ronan Keating - at a packed out NEC?? Good enough…. and then some!

This dynamic band of individuals will not fail to deliver, wherever your tastes may lie. Such are their talents, that one is enthralled with the rich blend of emotive songs, and enigmatic tunes. Here is a group of passionate artists who clearly cherish their music, use their instruments to their fullest potential, and generously 'give' of themselves and their talents to their audience.

Whilst Gwyneth Keen's hauntingly emotive vocals enthral the listener, the fiddle is dextrously relished by the hugely talented Sian Phillips. The beautiful playing of John Harris on Harp and Mandolin and the critically acclaimed playing of Gordon Taylor on guitar and Mandola bind it all together. Add then the extraordinary talents of one of the finest flute players to emerge, Imogen O'Rourke and you have a pan-Celtic band that will satiate a variety of appetites, but leave you hungry for the next serving!

'An eclectic fusion of styles and traditions'
