Fellswater at The Sembrich

Description

Our World Music Wednesdays come to a rollicking close with Fellswater, Boston’s dynamic Celtic music ensemble. Performing in a wide range of musical styles, from traditional to modern compositions, Fellswater brings energy and buoyancy to works drawn from the heritage of the Celtic world, in particular, from Scotland, Ireland, Brittany, Galicia, and Canada. The instrumentation of the diverse ensemble includes vocals, whistles, Irish flute, guitar, octave mandolin, violin, cello, nyckelharpa, Celtic harp, Scottish smallpipes, border pipes, acoustic bass guitar, and percussion.

Formed in late 2008, Fellswater has delighted audiences at New Hampshire Highland Games, Maine Highland Games, Blackstone River Theatre, Boston Celtic Music Fest, Colonial Williamsburg, Club Passim, and the Backroom at the Burren concert series.  The band has had two overseas tours: Canada in 2015 to perform in the Royal Nova Scotia International Tattoo and Scotland in 2018 to perform in the prestigious Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo and present two shows in the renowned Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
