River Crossing plays an energetic style of Celtic and Old

in their travels while playing and symbolically from the borders
their music crosses as they play fine music in the tradition
of many regions such as Kentucky, West Virginia and even across
the big water, to Ireland and Scotland. The group uses a combination
of fiddles, guitar, banjo, whistle, bouzouki and even bagpipes.
Their third CD is due out in the summer of 2003. They are
available for concerts, educational programs, festivals, public
and private events. |
