Acoustic

Fall Creek Folk is a diverse and spirited acoustic band featuring Ciele Murphy on keyboard & Celtic Whistle, Amy Davis and Richie Holtz on vocals and guitars and Rich Recchia on vocals, light percussion and guitar. Their repertoire includes an eclectic mix of sparkling originals, traditional and contemporary folk music, and pop songs from various periods. Their music, whether uobeat or lyrical, is characterized by finley tuned and blended vocal harmony with multi-layered and intricate instrumental accompaniment.

The Ithaca Concert Band, founded in 1976 by Joan Beeler and a small dedicated board of directors, continues the community band tradition. The Band performs about a dozen free concerts per year in local auditoriums, on the Commons, and in area parks. The Band is comprised of musicians from all walks of life. From student to professor, professional to retiree, the band's musicians play for the love of the music. Over 500 musicians have played with the band since its formation. New members are always welcome.

A Quartet of fiddles, flute, and bodhran played by a pair of sisters and their two cousins, the Grady Girls gracefully combine the pulsing melodies of slides and polkas (that they picked up in the southwest of Ireland), with more widely known dance tunes such as jigs and reels. Proudly carrying on the musical traditions of their forefathers and foremothers, the lovely young Gradys will sing, fiddle, and step-dance their way into your hearts, much as they entered ours from the first time we met them.
