The Carroll Sisters
June 13th 7:00PM
The Carroll Sisters Trio is most known for their traditional and contemporary tunes from the Irish, Scottish, and Cape Breton traditions and their original arrangements on fiddle, cello, and piano. Their music reveals both their old soul connection to the musical traditions they come from, their deep connection to the New England music community, and their youthful energy and creative arrangements. They've performed in intimate settings such as pubs, farm festivals, house concerts, as well as at larger events like Sober St. Patrick's Day in New York City (2018), the Boston Celtic Music Festival (2022-2024), and the Longs Peak Scottish Irish Highland Festival in Estes Park, CO (2024-2025). Their 2022 debut album (Daybreak, produced by John Whelan) has been critically acclaimed and featured in Irish Music Magazine, Celtic Life International Magazine, The Irish Echo, Boston Irish Magazine, and Irish and Celtic Music Podcast. Their second critically-acclaimed album (Radiance, produced by Katie McNally) came out in August 2025.

Cantrip
Cantrip is an old Scots word meaning a charm, magic spell or piece of mischief and it aptly describes the unexpected twist and turns in the band's musical arrangements. Swirling border pipes, raging fiddle, thunderous guitar and three rich voices blend to create a sound energetic enough to tear the roof off!
