 'Gan Bua' is a progressive Celtic band that plays with unmistakable energy and infectious rhythm. In their short history, they have made a tremendous impact in the Midwest Irish music scene. Coming from different Cities and backgrounds each one of them brings varied ingredients into the mix to make a powerful musical collage. The passion and exuberance for the music comes through with each note they play. As individuals, each member has earned the respect of their peers. As a group, the music they play is positively habit forming.

In the spirit of Dervish, Solas, Danu, and the like, this driving, flighty, bodhran-motored, Chicago-based band steps out into the light with their head-turning sound that can only come from top notch musicianship and immaculately-crisp delivery. Appealing to the need for lilting jigs and fourth-gear reels, Gan Bua takes their music several steps further, delivering more than the average pub group, which is plainly clear with their instantly palpable spirit that sweeps you off your feet- or, rather *on* your feet. If Irish music of any kind perks the heart rate, absolutely don't miss this.
