Celtic Music Spokane presents:  MIGHTY SQUIRREL -- a CD release show for the new recording "Sqworld Record." Join us for an evening of folk and Celtic music from Ireland, France, and Scotland with a healthy dose of acoustic Americana, Klezmer, old-time, and original songs as well!
MIGHTY SQUIRREL is a lively quartet of well-known West Coast musicians:  David Keenan of "Ranch Romance" fame, on guitar, mandolin and vocals; Ivan Rosenberg, co-winner of the 2009 International Bluegrass Association Song of the Year Award on clawhammer banjo and dobro; Greg Spatz of the Juno-nominated bluegrass band "John Reischman and the Jaybirds," playing fiddle and bouzouki; and, on fiddle and vocals, Caridwen Irvine-Spatz, whose voice is described in Audiophile Audition as "...Made for Celtic music...lyrical, expressive, flexible and utterly charming." Says Dave Higgs of Nashville Public Radio of their most recently recorded material, "Gorgeous...timeless, otherworldly and uplifting."
The show will take place Saturday, February 13th, 7:30 PM, at The Bing Crosby Theater.
