The Gothard Sisters in Somerville

The Gothard Sisters are an American Celtic folk trio from Edmonds, Washington, comprising sisters Greta, Willow and Solana Gothard. Their music draws on Irish fiddle traditions, original songs and three-part vocal harmony; their albums include Midnight Sun, Dragonfly and It's the Little Things. The Kennedy Center’s Millennium Stage in Washington, D.C., has hosted the trio, and their live work has also included tours of Japan. They perform in theatres, arts centres and at Celtic festivals, alongside recurring holiday concerts. Their standard concert features the three sisters singing and playing fiddle, guitar, mandolin, bodhrán and other acoustic instruments, and Irish step dancing is part of the show. They have also performed in concert with the Seattle Symphony in Seattle.
