The Hounds of Cuchulain are a high-energy Celtic folk band from Victoria who perform a wide selection of Irish, Scottish, English, and original folk songs in the Celtic Tradition: rowdy pub songs, tender ballads, spirited dance tunes, and ancient airs played with an authenticity and verve which bring the tradition to life!
The Hounds are Wolf Edwards on lead vocal and guitars joined by Madeleine Townley on vocals, Irish harp, and tin whistle, Briana Kennedy on fiddle, Dexter Simpson on Irish tenor banjo, Ben Garrison on mandolin, and Jeff Feltmate on bodhran and second fiddle.
The band has already released two full length albums—'Rebels, Rogues, & Roustabouts' and 'Here's the Grog'—and are heading back to the studio to record an album of original songs.
Come prepared to be swept up in the stories, to sing along, and to stamp your feet—true to the best of Folk tradition!!
