The All Hallows Fantasy Faire

Coyote Run

Within a sweeping soundscape, Coyote Run engages the audience in story after story, whisking them away to celebrate the ancient Celtic springtime holiday of Beltane (Mayday), march side by side with the Scottish honor guard of Joan of Arc, roll out the guns against Sir Francis Drake, snatch back a faerie abductee, or defy the universe with the bold words of Invictus (the Unconquered). The stories are rich and compelling, the melodies are memorable and at once manage to be both familiar and original. Tight harmonies and soaring vocals telling tales from legend, history and myth are the hallmark of this band.

Bagpipes, guitars, accordion, whistles, didgeridoo, electric bass, killer drums, and much more greet the audience at a Coyote Run concert. Something in the alchemical mix of players and their unique backgrounds creates a seamless, adrenaline filled show that never lets up. From the growling, rhythmic screams of the didgeridoo, to the rich, polyrhythm of the drums, to the monstrous and intricate bass lines, the wailing lead guitar, the filigree of the accordion, the triumph of the bagpipes and the lyrical whimsy of the whistles, this is a band that is unlike any other and is not soon forgotten.

Brother

Chances are you've seen BROTHER on NBC's 'ER', maybe heard their music on the classic 'Baraka' soundtrack or UPN's ' Twilight Zone.' The band has shared stages with Joe Walsh, John Entwhistle, Linkin Park, and Alicia Keys and are the only independent band to have played the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Fusing signature vocals and guitar with the deep pulse of the didgeridoo, the soaring highs of the bagpipes, and tribal percussion, BROTHER is wholly original. The band's powerhouse live performances are an energetic celebration, captivating and engaging the audience from the first song to the last. (Brother WebSite)

Black Irish Band

The Black Irish Band, also known as the Hooligans of Jamestown. The band has a musical style that is as timeless as the rugged landscape of the west, a tribute to the people whose lives were spent building the world we now take for granted. From the Singapore World Music Festival to the Kennedy Center they have perform for thousands of music lovers.

The band has a large compliment of traditional maritime and railroad music, as well as ethnic tunes in their repertoire. They commonly play Irish, Scot's, Italian, and American folk music with an assortment of original songs and traditional western ballads.The bands musical style captures the spirit of the immigrants of this land, the men and women who tamed the Wild West.

Avalon Rising

To say they're the world's foremost practitioners of Celtic/Medieval progressive rock could be meaningless, given the scanty membership of the genre -- until you factor in just how damn good they are. Hearing them perform, one is hard-put to say just what kind of music they're playing -- just that it rocks, it screams, it soars, it whispers. Elements of classical, Celtic folk, French Medieval, psychedelic jam band and funk interweave, conflict, and finally coalesce into a stunning, surprising whole. One hears echoes of Loreena McKennitt, Dead Can Dance, the Grateful Dead, Fairport Convention, and the Pentangle. (Avalon Rising Website)

Adamantine Belly Dancers

Adamantine

Adamantine is bringing their monstrous troupe and wicked choreography to the faire! They've put together a special Hallow's Eve themed dance for the evening, inspired by "Something wicked this way comes". Another is a very fun halloween dance to Marylin Manson's "This is Halloween". Adamantine's Queen of the Dead will be exhibiting her inhumanity and the day of the dead skeleton will bring ancient customs to the floor. Their daytime dances are made for halloween as well and are just as wicked!
