A Celtic Fusion band, MYTHICA takes the listener on a musical roller coaster ride through time and culture by applying the Celtic tones of the violin, mandolin and whistles, the millennia-old sounds of the hammered dulcimer, the familiar comfort of the acoustic guitar, and the electronic vibes of the 21st century.Mythica has made leaps and bounds in the regional music scene since its "birth" in January 2005. They have opened for several national acts, including the Spin Doctors, Sister Hazel, Catie Curtis, and Maggie Sansone. They were voted Best Celtic Fusion Band for the 2006 Celtic MP3 Music Magazine Awards, and voted Top Delaware Band in the 2006 93.7 FM WSTW Summerfest Contest. They have performed at some of the largest festivals and events in the Delaware Valley. For a full biography, visit www.MythicaMusic.com or view Mythica's Electronic Press Kit .
