> At our standing room only Durham house concert last year, Laura Risk and Paddy League showed that they can dazzle and delight an audience. It also showed us that you wanted to hear lots more. We've got great news. We are bringing them back to a larger venue so that we won't have to turn anyone away.
> California native, Laura Risk began playing Scottish fiddle music as a teenager. Her musical journey has since led her to the beautiful and diverse repertoires of Scotland, Cape Breton and, most recently, Quebec. As evidenced in several highly-praised albums, her playing is extremely expressive and versatile, ranging from elegant music composed for 18th Century Scottish drawing rooms to driving strathspeys and reels suitable for a Cape Breton dance floor.
> Paddy League plays bodhran, guitar and anglo concertina and is a highly acclaimed performer of Irish music. Paddy has toured extensively on the Irish festival circuit and has accumulated an impressive set of recording credits. He has appeared on records by Susan McKeown, John Whelan, Mick Moloney, and Connie Dover.
> The substantial combined talents of these two performers in the intimate setting of the Friends Meeting House will make for a brilliant musical evening that no one should miss. We hope to see you all there.
