Celtic, Quebecois, Cajun Music at The Music Box
Sat. Jan. 3 at 7:30 PM: Jeremiah McLane and Timothy Cummings

All tickets $10, kids under 16 free!
Tim & Jeremiah play music that is deeply rooted in the Northeastern United States, yet has branches that extend across the Atlantic. Their repertoire includes French dance tunes such as the Mazurka, Bourree, and An Dro from Brittany and Auvergne, as well as jigs and reels from the British Isles. Their original tunes reflect these influences, but also North American Roots music as well, including Appalachian, Cajun and Quebecois dance tunes. The music that Jeremiah & Tim create together helps bring together the diverse heritage of New England dance music.
Accordionist and pianist Jeremiah McLane plays a mix of musical styles from France, the British Isles, Eastern Europe and North America. He has appeared at numerous festivals in the U.S. and in Europe including the Royal Festival Hall in London, England, the Picolo Spoleto Festival, the St. Chartiers Festival (France), and the Philadelphia Folk Festival. He has composed numerous pieces for film and theatre and has received National Public Radio's “favorite picks” award for his second solo recording, Smile When You’re Ready, and French music magazine Trad Mag’s “BRAVO” award for his fifth release, Hummingbird. He has played many times at First Night Burlington. More at www.jeremiahmclane.com.
Monkton-based composer and multi-instrumentalist Timothy Cummings shares an uncommon hybrid of traditional folk styles—primarily Scottish and Appalachian, which occasionally expand beyond traditional boundaries. Tim has been a member of the highly-competitive Manawatu Pipe Band (New Zealand), and also served as the Artist in Residence at the College of Piping and Celtic Performing Arts (PEI, Canada). He is an experienced performer, teacher, and workshop leader and frequently combines music, humor, and informative talks to enliven and educate his audiences about the refreshingly odd world of bagpiping. His first solo album, The Piper in the Holler, will be released this summer. More about him at www.timothycummings.com.
