McCarthy's Reel brings Celtic music to life, with lively renditions of traditional (and some not so traditional!) Irish and Scottish tunes and songs. The band performs with a flexible line up of 2 to 5 players, and approximately three times as many instruments as band members (but who's counting?) Each band member has strong Celtic music credentials in their own right, and this wealth of experience coming together features strong melodic lines and rich harmonies in true Celtic style.
