Tim Edey & Brendan Powers are winners of BBC Radio 2 Best Folk Awards . Their powerful blend of passion and virtuosity is infectious. What sets them apart from most folk/Celtic acts is their free-wheeling approach to live performance.

Irrepressible energy, a gloriously exuberant instrumental spree, free reed mayhemThe Scotsman

Tim and Brendan love to improvise, which means that every time they do a piece it sounds different & fresh. It’s that sheer mad spontaneity which unfailingly captures audiences everywhere!

Edey Musician of the Year (Tim Edey)  is a virtuoso on both acoustic guitar and button accordion with an incredible musical ear and total technical command which allows him to play the most demanding instrumentals and improvise freely in any thrown at him. Harmonica player and composer Brendan Power is acknowledged by many as one of the most versatile and creative harp players around today. He sings and composes original songs, and often throws in some nifty beatboxing too.
