Konnect Club: Cantrip Concert
$12-$30 sliding scale
The name Cantrip is an Old Scots word meaning a charm, magic spell, or piece of mischief and it aptly describes the unexpected twists and turns in their musical arrangements, likewise the compelling potency of their musicianship. Swirling border pipes, raging fiddle, thunderous guitar, and three rich voices blend to create a sound energetic enough to tear the roof off. In late 2019, they spent a week in their original home of Edinburgh creating and recording new music for their Undark release. All of the tracks on this album were captured live in one take by engineer and longtime friend of the band Reuben Taylor. This album, originally slated to be released in Fall 2020, shows a new and darker side of the group while preserving the elements that audiences have come to know and love. After 20 years of touring, Cantrip has found a character like no other. Dan Houghton, Jon Bews, and Eric McDonald stir the elements in a witches' cauldron, slowly coalescing into chaotic order.
