Concert: The Merry McKentys

Event Description

The Merry McKentys are a retro-traditional family band with an Irish twist and wholesome West Coast vibe. Their multi-part sibling harmonies and foot-stomping fiddle tunes have been enchanting audiences throughout the West Coast of Canada and the US. They’ve performed and toured together extensively since the release of their first studio album in 2013; often sailing up and down the West Coast in their wooden ketch, playing at folk clubs, community dances, and music festivals on the Gulf & Discovery Islands. Instrumentation is an ever-changing medley as fiddles, guitars, banjo, cello, accordion, and bass are swapped between musicians to accompany their diverse set of original songs, traditional Canadian & Irish fiddle tunes, and contemporary + old-time folk covers.
