Celtic Crossings Tour comes to Warwick

Wheelers and Dealers is a multi-award winning Celtic roots band with a uniquely Australian sound. Formed in 2003, the band took its current form between 2004 and 2006 and has been working and touring steadily since then as a professional group.
The band’s second CD ‘Full House’, released in April 2007, won the Folk Alliance Australia award for Best Folk CD 2007 and is distributed in Australia and New Zealand by The Planet Company/MGM.
Their first CD won the MusicOz award 2003 for an original song entitled ‘Woomera’.
Wheelers and Dealers will be bringing their Celtic Crossings Tour to the Abbey of the Roses on Tuesday at 7.30pm.
In the forefront of exciting contemporary interpretations of folk music, multi-award winning band Wheelers and Dealers features the renowned fiddle playing of Mike Kerin, the powerful rock influenced guitar of Ged Corben, the percussive upright bass of Michael Vidale and the evocative accordion of Tinker Duffy, setting off malt whisky vocals from acclaimed folk singer Christine Wheeler.
The Celtic Crossings Tour offers a musically rich and intimate tapestry of songs that tell tales of love and celebration, of grief and longing, of emigration and adventure. They are stories that set the social and political scenery of their times.
Feel the pain of a drover’s wife during a drought, through the words of Henry Lawson set to music. Travel alongside a rogue Irishman with a Robin Hood complex. Sit outside a rough hut in the Appalachian Mountains listening to the fiddle dance.
Seating at the Warwick show is limited and bookings are essential.
Tickets are available at Stephanie’s Lingerie and Mayfair Casket Agency.
