CARTHAGE — New England Celtic Arts in collaboration with Culture Ireland and Saltwater Celtic Festival will present Ireland’s hot Trad band FullSet on Wednesday, March 6 at Skye Theatre Performing Arts Center. Curtain at 7 p.m. A pre-show jam session will start one hour prior to curtain.

All accomplished young musicians in their own right, together FullSet creates a stunning and unique sound that is full of energy and innovation, whilst all the time remaining true to their traditional roots.

With his smooth and free-flowing style of fiddle playing, Michael Harrison creates a distinctive sound using original and colorful techniques. Sean McCarthy is known for his complete use of the uilleann pipes and employs his skills and mastery of this instrument in all pieces arranged by FullSet. Talented musician Janine Redmond on button accordion maintains a rich traditional style that is becoming ever so rare in traditional music today. Eamonn Moloney on bodhran and Andy Meaney on guitar, effortlessly blend the music together with a sensitive yet driving accompaniment section. The emotive singing style of Teresa Horgan completes the ensemble and is guaranteed to captivate audiences of every generation.
