Tin Kettle appearances.... |
|
Tin Kettle is a Lancaster, Pennsylvania based trio specializing in the dance music and songs of Ireland, played on fiddle, tenor banjo, guitar, concertina, tin whistle, five-string banjo, and mandolin. All three members are veterans of the Pennsylvania folk scene. The group features the vocals of Matthew Ward, a regular performer for Philadelphia Ceili Group activities. Matthew's extensive store of material includes songs by some of Ireland's finest contemporary songwriters as well as songs from the deep tradition. John Winship and Sharon Sacks, aside from their Irish playing, have long experience with American Appalachian music: Sharon currently plays banjo with Ladies in the Parlor, and John played for many years in the West Orrtanna String Band and the Orrtanna Mountain Steamers. You can hear this southern mountain influence in some of Tin Kettle's arrangements. Tin Kettle is available for concerts, festivals, private parties and special events. For more information, contact: (717) 677-9106 or (717) 396-9752 Tin Kettle's new recording, "As Useful as a Small Pot" is now available at TK appearances, or from CD Baby http://cdbaby.com/cd/tinkettle. |
