Emerald
Rose is a four-man Celtic folk rock band with a rich, original "world fusion" sound with influences ranging from the
Chieftains to Jethro Tull. Blending chorus vocals, pennywhistle,
Irish pipes, world percussion and driving guitars and bass, their
music ranges from traditional jigs and reels to original folk
rock and pop numbers. Many of the band's musical themes draw from
Celtic myth and legend, but their style is modern, upbeat and
accessible. |
