Dowally is a thrilling roots duo of fiddler Rachel Petyt and guitarist Dan Abrahams. Described as “Utterly enchanting” by Songlines magazine, the musicians take a folky roots approach to original compositions and weave in influences from Klezmer, jazz, American old time and everything in-between. Expect songs and tunes which will both captivate and make you want to move your feet. (1hr)
