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.
