In their long history, the beloved band Colcannon has charmed audiences all over the country in settings as diverse as the sunburnt crowds at Merlefest to the genteel patrons of a symphony concert. Along the way they have performed for television specials, done school residencies and garnered numerous awards- including an Emmy, a Western Heritage Award and an Audiofile magazine Earphone Award. Their seven CDs on Oxford Road Records have received enthusiastic reviews and have aired across America and Europe.
Colcannon’s performances have been described as
“fresh and exciting...a mix of polish and passionâ€
“packed with subtle touches and fluid interplay..â€
“playing as sprightly as it is deeply felt, with poignant vocals that are as mighty as a spring stormâ€
