Punching through the walls of tradition, The McDades deliver a fiery, Celtic-rooted sound that seamlessly fuses the spontaneity of jazz improvisation with infectious global rhythms. At the heart of this multi-award-winning Canadian ensemble are siblings Shannon, Solon, and Jeremiah McDade, whose near-telepathic musical connection brings stunning virtuosity to every stage. From energetic instrumentals to moving vocal harmonies, their music finds its groove somewhere between a down-home kitchen party, a jazzy after-hours club, and a major folk festival.
