athas

Heather Lewin-Tiarks: Fiddle, viola, cello Jeff Ksiazek: Flute, whistles, guitar Amy Richter: Bodhran, djembe, whistles áthas lights the dance floor on fire with a combination of traditional and newly composed Irish dance tunes. Fierce fiddle, driving bodhrán, and funky guitar riffs come together to lift listeners' feet, drinks, and spirits. Although approaching the tradition from various musical backgrounds, the band found each other and their voice as an ensemble while playing in Irish sessions around Milwaukee throughout 2005.
