Overview
If you're a fan of Irish music you've probably heard of Randal Bays and Daithi Sproule... they've recorded and toured with the world's finest Irish musicians, including Martin Hayes, Altan, and many more. Now performing as a duo, they bring all the power and excitement of this new/old tradition to the stage, delivered with a warmth and good humor that gives their concerts the feeling of a "kitchen session". Randal's fiddling has earned him the respect of Irish music fans worldwide - The Rough Guide to Irish Music called him "the genuine article." Daithi (pronounced “DAH – hee”) is on most everyone's list of the greatest Irish guitarists and vocalists. He pioneered the use of DADGAD tuning with the legendary band Skara Brae, fusing modern melodic theory with traditional Irish music. More recently, as guitarist for the acclaimed group Altan, he has continued to play a key role in the Irish music renaissance.
Just in time for St. Patrick’s Day, Randal and Daithi bring their virtuosity to Whatcom County in support of the students of Lowell Elementary School.
