Mud’s rare blend of driving reels, playful jigs and lilting songs will
not be disappointed. Through their love of this ancient music and
their ability to play it in contemporary settings, Scatter the Mud
are sure to satisfy the most discerning ear. Performance Highlights: At the prestigious National Arts Centre in Ottawa, a sold-out house demanded an encore. Two energetic main stage appearances at the London Celtic Festival. Took the audience by surprise at the main stage Vancouver Celtic Festival. Proved to be crowd favourites at the North Country Fair. Very successful headliner at the Islands Folk Festival on Vancouver Island. Main stage headliner at the Canada Day celebrations on Prince’s Island Park in Calgary. Main stage appearance at the Festival in the Field, Summerside, PEI in support of The Rankins as well as a strong, diversified performance backing up Great Big Sea at the College of Piping’s concert series, also in Summerside. Two appearances in Tom Jackson’s Food Bank benefit series, “The Huron Carol”. Had everyone literally ‘scattering the mud’ at a soggy, but celebratory South Country Fair. A capacity crowd was on their feet at the West End Cultural Centre in Winnipeg. A fun-filled appearance on “MUCH East”. In addition, Scatter the Mud have played a wide variety of folk clubs, theatres and concert series events. They have also provided soundtrack material for several films. |
