Admission: $12.00 at the door

Coyote Run
In the tradition of the Ancient Bards, Coyote Run weaves songs that Soar through the
Air, Embrace our Mother Earth, Challenge the vastness of the Waters, and Evoke the spirit
of sacred Fire. With driving rhythms, Celtic flair, Heroic Warrior's tales, and the
Trickster's Twist, Coyote Run invites you to join in our Adventure.
Inspired by the rich history and heritage of their hometown - Williamsburg, Virginia - Coyote Run's music tells soaring tales of love, loss, laughter and the joy of living. Coyote Run draws from the deep wells of Celtic, warrior, and maritime traditions in crafting their music. They play a range of instruments and all sing. Their sound is clean, powerful, and rich, and their music appeals to all ages.
Maidens IV
Full of spirited talent and unbridled Celtic fire, Maidens IV continues to astound their audiences, with enchanting power in their vocals, exquisite dancing, fiddling that dares you not to be amazed, and brilliant unguarded sincerity in their original compositions and performance.
Sandra Parker
Sandra Parker developed a love of traditional ballads at the age of twelve, when she discovered the recordings that Joan Baez had made of ballads. She chairs the music committee of the Virginia Highlands Festival and started the festival's Celtic Weekend which just celebrated its 10th year. She has performed at the Barter Theatre, The Paramount Center for the Arts, Rhythm and Roots, Shakespeare and Friends Renaissance Festival, the Virginia Renaissance Festival, and the State Fair of Virginia. She is honored to again be featured as part of the Sycamore Shoals Celtic Festival!

Sigean
Sigean was formed in 1997, in Bristol, Tennessee, in order to allow local musicians to perform Irish traditional music. Our area of East Tennessee, Southwest Virginia, Western North Carolina and Eastern Kentucky was heavily settled by "Scots-Irish" immigrants in the 18th and 19th Centuries. Sigean exists to perform the music of the Celts, the jigs and reels that were once and are still heard throughout the green fields of Ireland, to a contemporary American audience.
Uncle Hamish and the Hooligans
We are a five member Celtic rock band from and around the mountains of Western North Carolina. The origins of this band was started with a desire to escape the various forms of music we were all involved in. We all had an overwhelming need to be part of a band that was truly different and special. Influenced by such ground-breaking bands like Seven Nations and Enter the Haggis, we set out to play Celtic music that also included our personal tastes. In our music, you're likely hear influences that range from Toto to Bowling For Soup and all points in between. Mix in the haunting sounds of traditional Celtic instruments like, the Highland bagpipes, whistles, flute, mandolin and other instruments of the like, and what you get is Uncle Hamish and The Hooligans.
