Jacob Jolliff with Rain Of Animals and Swinging on Birches

This special collaboration unites virtuosic American mandolinist Jacob Jolliff (formerly of Yonder Mountain String Band) with the eclectic folk duo Rain of Animals (Pepita Emmerichs and Theodore Barnard).

Born from spontaneous sessions in Glasgow and at the Shetland Folk Festival, the trio blends bluegrass and Irish/Scottish traditional music through a shared love of improvisation. Expect an explosive mix of original material and traditional tunes, approached with the collective experience of musicians who have toured with artists ranging from Béla Fleck to Wayward Jane. The perfect antidote to the January blues!

The musical trio SWINGING ON BIRCHES delivers a refreshing take on traditional music, blending tight instrumental prowess with vibrant arrangements. Their sound features sophisticated interplay across multiple genres, rooted in Celtic and folk traditions. They are celebrated for their technical brilliance and highly engaging, joyous performances
