Next year's Celtic Series promises to be a lively one, full of fantastic fiddlers and flying feet. These videos will show you what I mean!
The StepCrew
This amazing group of young dancers and musicians is bursting onto the Celtic music scene and leaving audiences spellbound wherever they go. Some of you got a taste of what's to come at this month's Chieftains concert: Jon and Nathan Pilatzke and Cara Butler, who danced with them, are members of The StepCrew. Here's a taste of Jon and Cara performing with Cherish the Ladies at a festival last summer.
Natalie MacMaster and Donnell Leahy
First of all, congratulations to Natalie and Donnell on February birth of their third child Claire Marie. Early next winter, the proud parents--both incredible Cape Breton fiddlers in their own rights--will be touring together for a few exclusive dates. This informal video was shot at the conclusion of the 2006 Leahy Music Camp.

Lunasa
This amazing Irish band is one of the best I've ever heard, hands down. Their CDs are great, but their live performances never cease to impress me. The audio on this recording is a bit low, so crank up your speakers, sit back and enjoy!
