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.

Highland Way

Highland Way

Highland Way - the most versatile Celtic Band in California. Playing everything from High Energy Festivals to Performing Arts Theaters, from Scotland to Nova Scotia to California. With their huge repertoire they are uncompromising professionals that know how to tailor their performance to the audience. A native Scot, Brian Caldwell is well known for his wonderful ability to charm any crowd while his energetic and driving rhythm guitar blends flawlessly with the rest of the band. Joining Brian are Ned Giblin from Galway Ireland, (vocals, whistles, mandolin), Paul Graham Castellanos (on fiddle, mandolin, guitar, banjo), Freddy Faith on percussion and drums, and featuring Sharon Whyte on accordion and keyboards. Highlighting Celtic music from Scotland, some originals and the occasional popular cover, Highland Way create the ultimate show.

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.
