Signature by IONA
The celebration of IONA's 31 years performing pan-Celtic music around the US with occasional forays overseas. For the past 10 years the line up has been stable with Barbara Ryan (vocals, bouzouki, bodhran), Bernard Argent (flute, whistles, bombarde, cabasa, doumbek and backup vocals), Chuck Lawhorn (bass and backup vocals), and Jim Queen (fiddle, banjo and backup vocals). What a wild and wonderful musical ride!
