In partnership with the Berea Celtic Festival: Cloigheann (pronounced klog-in) is a one-of-a-kind traditional Irish and bluegrass music ensemble from Louisville, Ky. Performing together for more than 25 years, they deliver a delightful mix of original compositions and traditional Irish reels, jigs, aires, songs and more.cIncorporating flutes, fiddles, whistles, mandolins and even bones into their infectious music, the band have performed at Irish and Bluegrass festivals across the country, as well as on renowned television and radio shows.
Turlach Boylan & Davey Mathias: Davey Mathias is literally a guitarist’s guitarist. He has often performed with fiddler Randal Bays, himself a highly respected Irish music guitarist. Randal says “It’s hard to imagine a better guitarist partner..” Davey accompanies Irish music with an uncommon warmth and sensitivity. From his early days as a punk rocker, passion for honesty and authenticity led him to traditional music. Davey still plays the instrument he annexed from his mother during his teenage years. No stranger to stereotype, Davey lives with his wife Andi in the deep South in a clapboard house with a porch, hound dogs and a cooler full of beer.
