The Press Gang Trio

Performers‍ ‍

ALDEN ROBINSON, fiddle

The Press Gang performs the songs and dance music of Ireland with the fluency of musicians steeped in the tradition and the spark of players who keep discovering new possibilities. Based in Maine, fiddler Alden Robinson, concertina and accordion player Christian "Junior" Stevens, and multi-instrumentalist Owen Marshall are known for skillful playing, deep musical understanding, and a wonderfully informal sense of humor on stage. The joy that these musicians pour into jigs, reels, songs, and slower airs is unmistakable and infectious. The result is a unique sound; energetic and sensitive, innovative and reverent.
