About Me

Born in midsummer when the moon was rising and færies were dancing, Wyllow Ravenscroft is a singer, songwriter, and musician who performs traditional folk music from the British Isles and America on voice, guitar and pennywhistle. Her original songs merge Celtic, Medieval, and Renaissance themes, often dealing with the myths and legends of the Celts.
Wyllow performs at coffeehouses, festivals, bookstores, and Renaissance faires. She has recently released her first solo album, Tales of Camelot. Wyllow also performs as one half of the Celtic folk duo Rossettistone, and plays in the dance band for the traditional/experimental dance group, Black Wren Morris.
Wyllow's other interests include, in no particular order, poetry, belly dancing, yoga, photography, travel, Pre-Raphaelite art, Arthurian legend, and the works of J.R.R. Tolkien.

You Are From Neptune
You are dreamy and mystical, with a natural psychic ability.
You love music, poetry, dance, and (most of all) the open sea.
