Event Description

Celebrate spring with incredible Celtic music as the fiddle and guitar duo of Pierre Schryer and Adam Dobres are joined by guitar maestro Andy Hillhouse.

A veritable Canadian Celtic supergroup, Schryer, Dobres, and Hillhouse cover an array of music, including traditional and contemporary tunes in various styles from far-reaching places including Canada, Ireland, Algeria, Brazil, Quebec, and more, all with warmth and humour.

Schryer is one of Canada’s leading traditional fiddlers, holding titles and awards including Canadian Open Fiddle Champion, Grand Masters Champion, Violoneux Championnat, and North American Irish Fiddle Champion.

Dobres is a highly accomplished guitarist with a natural ability to embody any style of music from Bluegrass to Celtic, Gypsy to Rock, and more. Also adept on electric guitar, Sitar, Turkish Lira and African Kora, he has played and toured with such diverse artists as Daniel Lapp, Toni Childs, and Blue Rodeo.

One of Canada’s finest Celtic guitarists in the fields of folk and traditional music, Hillhouse had earlier formed his own group, the popular Canadian Celtic funk band, Mad Pudding, was a former member of JUNO-nominated vocal collective, Musica Intima, and played with The McDade’s on their JUNO and two-time Canadian Folk Music Award winning album.

Together these three artists represent diverse and successful music careers laden with awards and nominations including JUNO Awards, Canadian Folk Music Awards, Western Canadian Music Awards, and Grammy Awards.

90 minutes (approx.) including intermission.
