Based in Salt Lake City, they call themselves a Celtic/Folk band. This family band enjoys performing a variety of music including celtic, bluegrass, folk, country, and gospel adding their own unique style. Their show is energetic and fun. As winners of the “National Family Talent Search” they opened for the Hughes Brothers in Branson, MO. They have won several individual and band competitions. Sarah and her husband, Dan, have played for thousands at folk festivals in more than 14 different countries around the world (ReverbNation).
