Bill Leslie & Lorica March 26, 2011

Warm, haunting and highly melodic music that explores the rich connection between the Carolinas and Celtic lands of Ireland and Scotland. Bill Leslie & Lorica features the original music of singer and storyteller Bill Leslie who plays guitar and Celtic whistles for the group. Cary flutist Linda Metz joins violinist Sherry Lattin, pianist-vocalist Marty Long and percussionist Stephen Levitin in helping to create Lorica's fresh and invigorating sound. Lorica will send your spirits soaring with a warm repertoire, fascinating stories behind the music and a unique brand of wit. Yo-Yo Ma describes Bill Leslie as "one of the greats in modern Celtic music." Veteran music reviewer R.J. Lannan describes Leslie as "the sovereign of American Celtic."
