Come to a fabulous house concert with The Red Wellies! The Red Wellies is a trio of fine Irish Traditional musicians operating out of Asheville, North Carolina. Fiddler Claudine Odell (her friends and family call her "Beanie") is a highly respected Irish fiddle teacher who has studied with some of the greats, including Tommy Peoples and Martin Hayes (and started out fiddling with the Irish Breakfast Band several decades ago). Her nephew, Duncan Wickel, on fiddle and Uilleann pipes, has toured with John Doyle and is a member of the Cathie Ryan Band. Beanie and Duncan have been playing together for more than a decade, and the resulting "twin fiddle" near-unison sound is goose-bump inducing. They are joined by Vincent Fogarty, whose tasteful bouzouki accompaniment combines a love for traditional Irish music with a rock-solid sense of rhythm and style.
