Rachel Davis & Darren McMullen

Cape Breton

Rachel Davis and Darren McMullen have spent more than a decade making records and touring the world as members of the award-winning group Còig. Listening to the pair, it’s obvious that they’ve been playing together for a while—not just as part of Còig, but also as a duo, as guests on each other’s records, and as part of bigger stage productions and ensembles. There’s an easy way about them, a sense of comfort that comes through in the music, in the mix of their instruments, the blending of their voices, and how their arrangements leave room for each other. They seem to know just when to lay back and when it’s time to “give’er”. Their work as a duo has come to the forefront with the release of their first album together, released earlier this year. Recorded with award-winning songwriter, musician, and producer Dave Gunning, Home is Rachel and Darren’s long-imagined, and much-anticipated, duo album. Highlighting the pair’s outstanding musicianship and vocals, Home mixes traditional tunes and songs with original co-writes and covers. Don’t miss your chance to see them this year during Celtic Colours at their only Festival appearance in Tuesday night’s concert, “Here, There, And Everywhere”.
