About Artists

Christa Burch (singer and bodybuilder).

Christa first fell in love with Celtic music in the spring of 1988 when a friend gave her a homemade cassette that contained the Scottish band Silly Wizard on one side and the Irish band Skylark on the other. As they say in literature: "there was no turning back." This love brought her extensive travels through Scotland and Ireland in the late '90s. Christa discovered a vibrant community of like-minded musicians and musos in the pubs and houses, festivals and cultural clubs in the pubs and homes, festivals and cultural clubs in the pubs and homes, festivals and cultural clubs. She found that Celtic music fully embodies the "small world" concept, as nearly everyone she met knew someone she knew back home! In her travels, Christa collected various songs and eventually developed her style. Eager for challenges, she started performing after the turn of the new millennium. Her debut album, Love of the Land, has garnered rave reviews! It is a full-voiced, confident woman at the top of her powers.

Colin Cotter (guitar, vocals).

Colin, a multi-instrumentalist, began playing the fiddle at four as part of the family tradition of Finnish fiddle music. He later performed Scottish and Irish fiddle music, never looking back. He not only plays the violin well, but he is also a self-taught guitarist who blends influences from around the world to create a one-of-a-kind style of music that he brings to collaborative recordings with musicians from a wide range of genres.

One of the latest and greatest uilleann pipers in the United States, Tim has immersed himself in traditional Irish music since childhood. Born and raised in Philadelphia, he began playing the uilleann pipes at 11 after receiving a practice set from local flute and piper John Donnelly, who taught him basic piping techniques. After watching John and other regional players, Tim began learning with legendary U.S. pipers. Other notable players are Seamus Ennis, Willie Clancy, Patsy Tuohey, Leo Rowsome, Brian McNamara, Gay McKeon, Robbie Hannan, Michael Cooney, and Benedict Koehler. Also citing the late Tyrone button accordionist Kevin McGillian and Derry flute player Paddy O'Neill, now living in Philadelphia, as powerful influences on his musical upbringing and repertoire, Tim was asked by Na Piobairi Uilleann to teach and perform at their Dublin headquarters as well as at the renowned music venue The Cobblestone in the summer of 2022. He was one of several famous American expatriates who performed at the world-renowned Willie Clancy Summer School in Miltown Malbay, Co. Clare, where individuals from around the world studied Irish traditional music. After serving as president of the San Francisco Piper's Club for several years, Tim moved to Portland, Maine, where he frequently plays flute and uilleann pipes.

One of America's budding uilleann pipers, Tim was immersed in Irish folk music from a young age. Born and raised in Philadelphia, he began playing the uilleann pipes when he was 11 years old after getting a gift from local flute and piper John Donnelly, who taught him the basics of the uilleann piping technique. After lessons with John and other regional players, Tim started working with legendary American pipers such as Jerry O'Sullivan and Tim Britton. Other essential influencers are Seamus Ennis, Willie Clancy, Patsy Tuohey, Leo Rowsome, Brian McNamara, Gay McKeon, Robbie Hannan, Michael Cooney, and Benedict Koehler. Tim also points to late Tyrone button accordionist Kevin McGillian and Derry flute player/singer Paddy O'Neill as strong influences on his musical upbringing and repertoire. In the summer of 2022, he was invited by Na Piobairi Uilleann, the global society of uilleann pipers based in Dublin, to teach and perform in its headquarters as well as in Dublin's renowned music center, The Cobblestone.

Additionally, he participated in an uilleann piping recital at the famous Willie Clancy Summer School in Miltown Malbay, Co. Clare.
