Wicked Tinkers ...
Toasty!
(by Traditional, arranged by Aaron Shaw)
Audience Count: 3,771
The Story...
 Only two of the four musicians in our band are Pagan, so I can only let you hear half of the tune. Just kidding. - Do you feel the call of the Ancient? We do. - The power and emotion of the Great Highland Bagpipe, Tribal drums, fierce and joyous, The mystical rhythms of the Australian didgeridoo and The ancient call of the Bronze-Age Irish Horn - Wicked Tinkers are a Celtic Tribal Sound Explosion!
In 1995, Aaron Shaw piper and founding member met bass drum player, Warren Casey at The Celtic Arts Center in Los Angeles, California. Playing together, they discovered the simple beauty and power of the music created by these two instruments.
"The combination seemed to tap the very soul of Gaelic Music "Says Shaw.
It is the music you might have heard hundreds of years ago at a Scottish wedding celebration; or perhaps around the campfire at a Highland raiding party - a raw, exciting sound that touches you on a primal level. Looking for a way to express this feeling of the ancient within the modern world, Wicked Tinkers was born.
In 2000, percussion powerhouse, Keith Jones joined the Tinkers, rocking the band into the new millenium with his red-hot drumming, and his rowdy, bigger-than-life personality.
The most recent addition to the band, Jay Atwood , adds the mystical sounds of the didgeridoo and Bronze-Age Irish Horn, a sound that was thought to be lost for over three thousand years.
Recorded: Live in Boise, ID Sept. 2006
Guests/Players: Aaron Shaw (bagpipes) ; Keith Jones (djembe) ; Warren Patrick Casey (Tapan) ; Jay Atwood (didgeridoo)
Technical Notes: Recorded Live in Boise, ID
Artist Profile: This strange and unlikely combination seems to access our deepest connection to a primal place that is both hauntingly familiar and ancient. It is the music of our Celtic ancestors, recreated for the twenty-first century.
Wicked Tinkers is the distillation of a people, their passion, and their music. Like a smokey Scotch whisky, they're a little rough around the edges, but unmistakably the real thing.
