Prydein

In an effort to take music in new directions, a group of college friends at the University of Vermont started “The Experimental Music Program.” They had some fun, but the group produced lackluster results until one day a bagpiper came into their midst. What strange beastly creation was this? There was no place to plug in an amp. The piper tuned it with… electrical tape? Could this have been what they were searching for? It was.
 
Whether you call it Celtic-rock, kilt-rock, bagpipe rock, Scottish-rock or even Sham-rock, Prydein delivers a high-energy performance loved by young and old. A typical Prydein audience is a pretty even mix of folks; elementary school kids to those disenchanted youth with hair the color of toxic waste and holes in their body that they weren’t born with standing next to elderly couples holding up cell phones in the air so that their middle-aged children can hear the amazing sound coming from a rock band with bagpipes. Call it what you will…
…they call it fun.

Stone Clover

Stone Clover was literally born above and Irish pub in downtown Detroit. Front man Pauly Brady formed the band in 2009 while living above the pub his grandparents built, the Old Shillelagh.
The band started out playing music at pubs and events in the Irish community but quickly expanded to larger venues and music festivals. Stone Clover’s original approach to song writing is a melding of pub style tunes mixes with aspects of rock, punk, gypsy, folk, and Americana. They affectionally call this style of their own “Paddy Slag” as it clearly comes from Irish tradition but also has so many other influences as well.
A high energy stage show mixed with anything from fun and fast takes on traditional songs to their own infectious originals is what to expect.

The group consists of Pauly Brady (lead vocals, 6 and 12 string guitars), Marc Brockway (bass), Taylor Izak (violin), James McCue (drums) and Connor Payne (back up vocals, mandolin and accordion).
