In May, Music Network presents an exciting new collaborative project featuring Kentucky fiddle and hardanger fiddle player Liz Knowles, Congolese guitarist and vocalist Niwel Tsumbu and Irish concertina player Niall Vallely. Combining their extensive and varied musical influences, they’ve found common ground and will push the creative boundaries in a unique cross-cultural, cross-genre collaboration. Expect striking melodies, beautiful harmonies, deep rhythmic grooves and all-round joie de vivre in a concert that’s sure to be a balm for the soul as this remarkable trio of musicians take to the stage. “One of North America's finest exponents of Irish music” – The Living Tradition [on Knowles] “A musical river flowing whose sources range from classical to Central Africa and way beyond” – Journal of Music [on Tsumbu] “Niall Vallely’s technical mastery and genius for improvisation are matched by apparently inexhaustible creative reserves” – The Irish Times
