Emerald Accent – Celtic Music Spotlight / #51

EmeraldAccent

Emerald Accent Irish Music was founded in the spring of 2010 for the enhancement of the Celtic cultures through music in South Mississippi. Emerald Accent includes members Clark Lowery (vocals, guitar, banjo), Gail Fox (fiddle), Tom McCandlish (bodhran, vocals). With backgrounds in Irish, Bluegrass, Blues and Classical, the band brings freshness to the genre while priding itself in the Irish traditional style. The band loves working as a ceili band while also producing soothing slow jigs and waltzes. They have played for dances, concerts, pubs, and receptions and stand as the performing band with the Jackson Irish Dancers all across the Southern United States. Emerald Accent is a well-rounded band for those who enjoy Irish and Scottish music. The band has produced two CD's, “Laurel Green” and their latest 2015 release “For Love of Scotland.”
