1st Sneak Pete of the Week: Ten Strings and a Goat Skin

 “A seamless, polished, barrel-drum-tight, rhythmically innovative & wildly entertaining traditional music powerhouse.” – The Guardian

We’re kicking off our 2016 Sneak Pete announcements with a young trad/folk/fusion bilingual trio from PEI that we know you will love! Boy howdy, these guys are good.

Playing Irish, Acadian, French and original creations infused with modern and world rhythms, these musical dynamos have crafted a fiery traditional sound that’s feels brand new – an amazing feat for young guys basically just out of their teens. 

It’s trad music in the hands of a new generation – full of energy, passion, and spirit. Come see these ECMA winners, and join a growing movement of fans from all over the world who find TSAAGS’s Jesse Périard and brothers Rowen and Caleb Gallout “intoxicating”. 

Watch them perform The Night They Moved the House.
