Finvarra

The music of the Dutch band Finvarra can best be described as Celtic roots mixed with oriental elements. The group consists of four experienced musicians with different musical backgrounds, which results in a blend of various styles that is firmly rooted in the Celtic tradition. Patrick (guitar, bouzouki), Dieke (vocals, percussion), Gwen (vocals, Indian harmonium, bouzouki), and Corné (violin, percussion) arrange traditional songs and tunes as well as their own compositions and perform everywhere from small neighborhood theatres to big festivals. Their self-titled debut album, launched in June 2013, has received positive reviews both in the Netherlands and abroad.
