Kalos

Doors at 7:30pm
Concert at 8pm

Kalos features Ryan McKasson (fiddle, viola, vocals), Eric McDonald (guitar,
mandolin, lead vocals), and Jeremiah McLane (accordion, piano, vocals). As part of
their development, all three members of Kalos learned from masters of traditional
music (McKasson with Alasdair Fraser, McDonald with John McGann, and McLane
with Jimmy Keane. The three are, themselves, masters of tradition who make
alluringly complex music full of spontaneous artistry. Pulling from parallel strains of
influence in the Traditional music canon, Kalos underlying drive and pulse,
rhythmic electricity and swirling intensity transform traditional repertoire into a
vital, elemental, genre-transcending sound appealing to music lovers of all stripes.

Kalos debut album, Headland, takes listeners through a range of moods -- from
poignant yearning to exuberant celebration. Headland, which refers to a point
where land meets sea, is a fitting analogy for the exploratory space Kalos inhabits --
one that calls forth driving, heartfelt music journeying through unknown territory to
seek and find its essence the enduring, resilient experience of the human heart.
