Featuring hammered dulcimer, guitar, mandolin, recorders, cittern, violin, Native American flute, ocarina, hurdy-gurdy, an assortment of percussion and whatever else they might have picked up on their travels, their shows are guaranteed to provide an evening of great music and entertainment for all, especially those seeking something a little off the beaten track.
Tania Opland is a multi instrumentalist and singer born and raised in Anchorage, Alaska with several solo recordings under her belt. She has appeared on radio and television in the U.S., Canada, Russia, Uzbekistan, Ireland and the UK.
Mike Freeman, originally from Manchester, England, has played guitar and percussion with an assortment of bands, accompanied Middle Eastern and African dance troupes, and performed at countless festivals throughout Britain and North America. He has worked on numerous recordings in the roles of musician, arranger, producer and recording engineer.
Mike's irreverent sense of humour and Tania's stunning vocals provide the springboard for a rollercoaster ride across several continents and back again!
A feature not to be missed!!
