Search - Iris Nevins :: Celtic Guitar Dreams

Iris Nevins has produced a deeply personal album focusing on her unique fingerstyle guitar and a delightful compilation of well-loved traditional standards and her own reflective compositions.

Of particular note are the fresh takes on O'Carolan material (Planxty Irwin, Lord Inchiquin, O'Carolan's Welcome and Planxty Hewlett) and the Derry Air, aka Danny Boy.

Iris has played extensively in the NY/NJ area since the 1970's both as a solo guitarist and as accompanist to major local and visiting traditional Irish music artists such as Andy McGann,Johnny Cronin, Joe Accordion Burke and Joe Banjo Burke.

Iris is joined on "Celtic Guitar Dreams" by Linda Hickman (of Celtic Thunder fame), Doug Barr, Ray Murphy and Richard Sutton on flute, concertina, mandolin and bodhran respectively.
