Wicked Tinkers
 Wicked Tinkers - Known as “The Wicked Ones” ,
(click on photo to enlarge) play the music of the Scottish Highlands proud, stirring, passionate and spice it with the Celtic tunes of Ireland. Aaron Shaw, one of the top pipers in America and Warren Patrick Casey, drummer for twenty five years have wowed audiences all over America. Not a military or rock band, Wicked Tinkers perform the kind of music you might have heard hundreds of years ago at a Scottish wedding, ceilidh or around the campfire of a Highland raiding party. You have seen the TINKERS on TV in the drama “High Incident” , on the Dixie Chicks music video “Ready To Run” and they have been the lead-off band for the Doo-Dah Parade in Pasadena, California three years running.

 Blackwaterside:
The band Blackwaterside was formed in 1995 by flutist Susan Craig Winsberg in
celebration of her Scottish heritage. Since then they have released three CDs
and have played several concerts and festivals, receiving great public acclaim.
They are known for their varied approach to traditional Scottish and Irish
music, alternating lively, upbeat tunes with lyrical and haunting ballades,
constantly changing the texture and color of the instrumentation so that their
sound is forever fresh. Audiences are inevitably impressed and greatly
entertained by the uniqueness and originality of a Blackwaterside Celtic music
performance.
