From the Promoter

Còig, an ensemble of East Coast musicians is one of Canada’s premiere traditional groups. In one explosive coming together, what was once solo acts on stage has amalgamated into one electrifying super group, picked as Penguin Eggs magazine’s 2014 #1 New Discovery internationally. With driving tunes, haunting songs, and infectious energy, Còig is an unparalleled musical force.

“…Every number is convincing and compellingly delivered. This group’s ability to back songs on piano, fiddles, cello, guitars, and more gives them enormous scope, and keeps the surprises coming throughout Rove. Slow reels and strathspeys, smooth fiddle and staccato banjo, plenty of their own material as well as the best of three centuries of tradition: there seems to be no end to Còig’s talents, and I’m sure their story will continue well beyond this outstanding recording.”
