Information
After 30 years of touring with acclaimed Celtic Rock band Enter the Haggis, Craig Downie knows how to entertain. Enter the Haggis focused on the fan experience, creating music with a perfect balance between innovation and tradition, and making the band a staple at PACs and festivals. Haggis X-1 features Craigs piping, vocals, songwriting and loveable sense of humour, surrounded by top-notch musicians including Tom Barraco and Trevor Lewington (Enter the Haggis) on drums and guitar/vocals, and Emily Yarascovitch (Tartan Terrors, Step Crew) on fiddle and step-dancing. Fans of Celtic Rock and longtime supporters of Enter the Haggis wont want to miss this opportunity to experience Haggis X-1. Brian Thomas is a folk musician whose music resonates with listeners from all walks of life. Drawing inspiration from the rich storytelling traditions of folk music, Brian weaves narratives that explore themes of love, loss, and the beauty of nature. With a unique blend of acoustic guitar, banjo, and harmonica, their sound evokes a sense of nostalgia while staying fresh and relevant in todays music scene. Hailing from Upstate NY, Brians journey in music began at an early age, listening to his uncles play blues and bluegrass music. Over the years, Brians songs have found a home in intimate venues and festival stages, where their authentic presence and raw emotion leave a lasting impression on audiences. Brian is now backed by a band coined The Strikes comprised of Jeff Ingersoll on pedal steel, Mike Teixeira on electric guitar, Michael Fishman on drums, and Mike Sloan on bass. This dynamic group blends new indie/folk songwriting with classic country and rock n roll sounds.PRESENTED BY VISIONS FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
