Celtic Rush is a group of six friends that have been making music together since 2012. We started as an open session and went from there. Since that time, we have performed in venues across Northeastern Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia. We perform predominantly Celtic traditional music, but not always in a traditional manner! Join us for a song, or a hornpipe, or something with our own twist. Our members, and instrumentation, contribute to our unique sound.
Meet the Band

We call her MandoLisa, as she is our mandolin player. She also sings a tune or two for you. A woman of many talents, she plays bodhran, too.
Donna
Meet our bassist, Donna. She also leads some songs, and harmonizes on others.
Cathy
Whistling and singing, that's our Cathy.
Mike
We are so fortunate to have two guitarists. Mike plays the 12 string. He will also sing for you.
Tim
Our most prolific vocalist, he plays the 6 string, too.
Holly & Bob
Holly and her fiddle Bob are a team! Bob sings for you. (Be glad!)

One of our founding members, Brittany is a great fiddler. Pictured here in a fiddle duel with Holly. (Tie score!) She has since moved to the Columbus area.
