The Grange welcomes CANTRIP to open our fall concert series!

Jon Bews, Dan Houghton, and Eric McDonald are Cantrip

The name Cantrip is an Old Scots word meaning a charm, magic spell or piece of mischief and it aptly describes the unexpected twists and turns in their musical arrangements, likewise the compelling potency of their musicianship. Swirling border pipes, raging fiddle, thunderous guitar and three rich voices blend to create a sound energetic enough to tear the roof off. Echoes can be heard of trad music from the 1960s and 70s, but the years have slowly infested their music with the sounds of funk, metal, bluegrass, swing, and even klezmer.

CANTRIP is Dan Houghton (bagpipes, whistle), Jon Bews (fiddle), and Eric McDonald (guitar). Their infectious music has wowed audiences at festivals and concert halls throughout the US and Europe.
