the
chivalrous crickets
Creating at the intersection of traditional English, Celtic, and American folk,
and early (Baroque) European art music.
the Crickets' backgrounds, skills and interests combine in a unique sound centered on rich vocal harmonies,
diverse instrumental blends, thrumming arrangements and innovative programming of traditional, original
and historical music.
Based between eastern PA, central NJ & NYC, they play diverse venues from history museums to schooners, concert series to folk festivals around the nation.
The Crickets specialize in creating cross-genre collaborative and educational experiences with partner organizations, folk holiday celebrations & dances, seasonal & nature-based programs, concert-theater works, and shows that demonstrate the historic roots and broad reach of Celtic music around the world.

The cricket, as described in the Medieval Bestiary, is "an animal that loves to sing, forgetting all else".
We often find ourselves sitting around a table working on arrangements,
forgetting all else but the music and the friendship.
