Dervish

Dervish hail from Sligo in the Northwest of Ireland, an area long noted for producing some the major names in traditional Irish music. Since their first album in 1992 this six band has stood at the forefront of traditional Irish groups. Their performances at venues such as Wolf Trap and The San Francisco Celtic Festival dramatically launched them before American audiences and created a sensational stir, which has been substantially reinforced in subsequent tours. Dervish's concerts reflect a myriad of tones and moods, ranging from high-energy tunes played with intuitive fluidity to beautifully measured songs; from charming lyrics of life and love to inspiring melodies that lift audiences from their seats. All the elements are drawn together by vocalist Catherine Jordan's masterful stage presence.
