From the Lowell Folk Festival web site:

Irish Fiddle and Guitar Duo – Noted for their virtuosity and creativity, fiddle player Liz Carroll and guitarist John Doyle are among the most influential and celebrated of traditional Irish musicians in America.

Liz and John shifted us from bluegrass to Irish, but the similarities were still evident. What did come first, the cart or the horse?

I have seen John before. I believe he came to the Fesitval as part of the Eileen Ivers group as I recall. He has a good voice. They both played well in the heat and joked about it being early for them to play. They were scheduled to return to open the evening session on this stage. More inline with when they are used to playing at least!
