This
fiddler and guitarist from Colorado are creating waves across the States and beyond.
Not only do they play the music of the Auld Country with sensitivity and soul,
they also bring their own brand of modernism to the Irish tradition.”
—Irish Music Magazine
“Adam’s
music has been familiar to me for many years… I’ve never heard him play a note
that wasn’t sincere and from the heart. His music is true and free from
pretense. He constantly seeks the deepest expression of the music.”
—Martin Hayes
Adam Agee & Jon Sousa
began playing together in Boulder, Colorado in 2005 and moved to Ennis, County
Clare, Ireland in 2008. They now tour in the United States and internationally.
As educators, Adam & Jon teach Irish tunes and technique at music camps,
festivals, and international schools across the world.
Through opportunities in
America and Ireland, Adam has studied fiddle with many of today's living
tradition-bearers. He has been teaching and performing for more than 20 years.
Jon’s passion for Irish
traditional music has taken him all over the world and eventually to reside in
Ireland in 2008. There he refined his skills in interpreting Irish music while
earning his Master of Arts degree in Traditional Irish Music Performance at the
University of Limerick.
