Traditional Irish Music with a kick. Tune sets and vocals blend flutes, fiddles, whistles, and hammered dulcimer with the strong rhythms of guitar and bodhran to create an infectious sound. See us at Milwaukee's Irish Fest.

After an exciting St. Paddy's Day, multiple live shows including opening for the Karan Casey Band and Liz Carroll & John Doyle, Waking Maggie is currently recording their sophomore album. See the website for details.
Reviews:
[Waking Maggie is]..."thrilling audiences and continually pushing themselves to new musical heights. Their rhythms and melodies are contagious! I defy anyone to sit through one of their infectiously rollicking sets and not find their fingers twitching or toes tapping. They are consummate crowd-pleasers and joyous makers of music to make you want to dance."
-David Schmidt, independent film maker
"Take the very best of traditional folk music, played with the articulate emotion of those who understand and love the heart of that music, add a twist of the addition of non-traditional instruments, and this seamlessly blended concoction results in some of the best music around."
-Sonnett Shelline, Professional Vocalist
"Waking Maggie has a unique, energetic sound that allows the mind to time-travel back to a romantic age. These young musicians exude creativity from every pore."
-Peter Watts, R.R.R. Festival Director

Excellent Sounds!
author: Scott E. FalkI've heard numerous amateur and professional Irish Folk artists, and this group is by far in the professional ranks! Every song gets your feet tapping or singing along! If you're a fan of this genre I highly encourage you to get a copy of this album!
