John is lead singer and a versatile instrumentalist on mandolin, guitar and banjo as well as fiddle. Trish plays banjo and guitar. Sing Out magazine said, "John Kirk is a fine player on all his instruments and he sings quite well. With such a widely varied repertoire, there’s really something here for everyone. This is one that’s worth seeking out." When Ed Lowman, Sara Milonovich & Cedar Stanistreet join the ensemble, they add three more fiddles, harmony vocals and versatility when they chose to play bass, flute, guitar or bodhran. John, Trish, Ed and Sara live near Saratoga Springs, NY, and Cedar resides a little further north in the Adirondacks.
