John Doyle and Mike McGoldrick, together, represent the finest musicians performing in traditional Irish music today. 

Born in Manchester, UK, of Irish parents, Mike has been a touring musician since his teen years, and most notably distinguished himself in the top shelf bands, Lunasa and Capercaillie. With his powerful and yet subtle flute, whistles and uillean pipes, Mike has performed all over Europe, the US, Canada and worldwide with Kate Rusby, Mark Knopfler, Eric Clapton, and like John Doyle, is a regular for many years with the Transatlantic Sessions at the Celtic Connections festival in Glasgow. He is a recipient of every possible folk music award in the UK, a highly prolific tunesmith, and very much in demand in the studio.

John likewise has been a professional since a teenager when he hit the road with Seamus Egan and Joanie Madden almost immediately upon his arrival in New York City in the early '90's; he then went on (along with Seamus Egan) to found the groundbreaking Irish American band, Solas.  He has since forged a formidable solo career as producer, musician, songwriter and singer.  John's distinguishing percussive and emotive finger picking on guitar has been the choice on over 150 recordings of traditional Irish, bluegrass, oldtime, English folk and Americana with everyone from Eric Clapton to Tim O'Brien, Kate Rusby, Alison Brown, Liz Carroll, Linda Thompson, and a very long list of luminaries in folk music.

John and Mike individually are the very best in each of their respective instruments; collectively they are a powerhouse and truly not to be missed.
