about

Duck Baker: guitar, vocals
Maggie Boyle: vocals, flute
Ben Paley: fiddle
The inspired combination of three great performers whose passion for traditional music and song has sustained them and their audiences for decades.

Drawing on their common sources – the Irish and American traditions – they have come together for a musical celebration of the highest calibre.

“three of the finest musicians you are ever likely to hear lap back and forward across the Atlantic with consummate ease”
Living Tradition

“….beautiful music, beautifully played….Ben and Maggie have the ability to do more than just engage your critical acclaim; they can ignite your emotions or break your heart slowly if they choose and the fabulous Baker boy has the surgical skill and technique, the wit and the musical charm to stitch it all back together again.”
Neil Dalton
