Built upon two sturdy pillars—the hauntingly charismatic vocals of Cathy Jordan and the dazzling virtuosity of award-winning instrumentalists Tom Morrow on fiddle, Liam Kelly on flute and Shane Mitchell on accordion—Dervish first attracted attention with its legendary pub sessions. The solid rhythm playing of Brian McDonagh and Michael Holmes drives the band, whose concert performances are a myriad of tones and moods ranging from high energy tunes to beautifully measured ballads, from charming lyrics of life and love to inspiring melodies that lift audiences from their seats. All the elements are knit together by Cathy Jordan’s masterful stage presence. Her stories and interaction with the audience draw people into the music in a way very few performers can achieve.
More than 20 years since its inception and with four of the original members still at the helm, Dervish has visited every corner of the globe and shared center stage with the likes of James Brown, the Buena Vista Social Club, Oasis, Sting, REM, Beck and many more. Dervish has been instrumental in bringing Irish music to a worldwide audience—so come celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with Dervish!
