OVER 40 YEARS AGO, Margie and Paul founded Golden Bough with the idea of combining Celtic music with their own original compositions. 30 recordings, several tours in the U.S. and Europe later, combined with the addition of Kathy Sierra, Golden Bough is still a driving force in the Celtic music scene, with new recordings anbd tours in the works.
Rooted in the traditional music of the seven Celtic nations (Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Cornwall, The Isle of Man, French Brittany and Spanish Galicia), Golden Bough has become a popular and in-demand group on both sides of the Atlantic. Since their formation in 1980, this trio of modern day minstrels has traveled great distances to numerous countries, to bring their music to enthusiastic folk fans the world over.
Backing themselves on an array of acoustic instruments; Celtic harp, guitar, octave-mandolin, mandolin, accordion, violin, penny-whistle
and bodhran, they blend their voices in the pristine harmonies that have become a Golden Bough trademark. To date they have released
over 30 recordings. In the recording studio, as well as on stage, Golden Bough captures the essence and joy of traditional music.
