Còig live at Celtic Colours International Festival

[@brookebillick1304]

Chrissy Crowley and Rachel Davis are amazing fiddlers and wonderful young ladies! Their sheer joy in their craft is infectious!

[@mrdreamsgalore]

I'm happy when musicians are happy when they are playing.

[@JustFiddler]

me too..... the happy energi its effect to me.... thank you

[@benjaminmassey7260]

I get that. I makes it waaaay easier to get into the spirit of the music that way for me.

[@ReichardtHelmut]

Very very contagious happiness - and I´m happy to fall prey to whatever they´ve got! Makes we remember that there are things in social closeness that are tremendously healthy! Thanks for these blessings!

[@brendanchambers2543]

fantastic musicians doing fresh and contemporary could be the best group of female i have heard playing trad in a very long time come up to Donegal town anytime again fantastic

[@icewaterchrist]

My wife and I were there at this show. So much fun, this terrific recording doesn't even do them justice. If you like this go to Celtic Colours! We could go only for a long weekend but was one the best trips we had ever taken.

[@icewaterchrist]

We were there, too.

[@ghostgod.66]

@@icewaterchrist huh?

[@carolchannell7693]

I agree …. We were there too and did this during a three month RV trip from Michigan. This was the most fun we had as old farts on a very long trip. My roots are Scottish and I was on trip to find my line of Campbell’s straight from Scotland before French and Indian War. They were shipwrecked in Pictou and we found it. My GG grandfather played the fiddle and my mom and I remembered some of the songs they did here. I have all COIG’s music. PURE FUN.

[@danielgrenier2417]

One of the most fun, uplifting, toe tapping 6 minutes of my life!

[@TexasChilliMassacre]

Yep,i grabbed my jawharp playing along with them.. Yeeeeehaaa😂

[@phillmcintyre9074]

What this band has accomplished in a few short years is mind boggling. If you ever have the chance to see them live, do it. Their shows are packed with energy from start to finish. Glad I got to see this live. I have presented Coig in Maine and beyond for several years now and they are my clients all time favorites..

[@p3d0beer]

Saw them (well, Chrissy Crowley, Rachel Davis, Jason Roach and Collin Grant) 6 years ago, and I loved it. I hope I'll see Còig at Festival Interceltique de Lorient some day :)

[@paulabhagyam]

Yes, they are amazing! So much energy and talent! So glad to have seen them in Milwaukee, Wisconsin!

[@TripleBTermite]

is there a name for this tune please?

[@Hancsuka]

@@TripleBTermite Franzke en français ;)

[@patricefairbanks3502]

One of my favorite groups at Celtic Colours!! They were fantastic. I expected their fiddles to burst into flames! :-D

[@anderspersson7084]

Wow, great display of the music and the atmosphere and joy that makes us happy, this is how folkmusic should be played, so many times we miss that atmospheric magical stomp, when people made folkmusic long ago they counted on the stomp from themself but also from people who danced to the music, and on that swinging vibrating woodfloor atleast the folkmusic here in Sweden where they used to dance in the barns, it's not nostalgia but the sound and how it feels in the body through the floor is really something special, and it's many times lost in the translation when the music moves into the modern world, but for me it's an essential part of the music itself, maybe not so easy to recreate in our modern building but it should not be totally impossible either or somehow maybe use drums and bas maybe to fill that hole from what can be missed without that stomp.

[@theawesomeharveygogangbroo9443]

Danced from beginning to end,couldn't stop they were awesome

[@jeanlucmazieres7952]

Bravo à vous 4, vous faites une performance et vous souriez, vous donnez envie de danser avec vous et de jouer aussi. Merci beaucoup beaucoup 🤩🤩🤩🤩

[@elenavanbc]

thank you, thank you for spreading such joy and talent, now 2020, December, middle of terrible lockdown/virus riddled town in South America, I take solace with music precious gifts like this one. Bless you, and a bonus for me is to know this group is from my beloved Canada, my adopted country I hope to go back if Providence allows my elderly body to survive the current challenge.

[@Sapphire_Dicson_Official]

I love folk music! Doesn't matter which region of the world, I love 'em all. How could you not want to dance listening to this?

[@musicAle77]

I thought beautiful music was extinct, God bless you

[@TheMardiMan]

WOW... Fantastic! Saw them live last night at the Shalin Lui Performance Center in Rockport, MA. What a perfect backdrop with the ocean behind them playing incredible music. An evening to remember for a long time. They are very talented musicians and wonderful people! Music rocks!!

[@GypsyWagonTV]

Fantastic! Big Cheers from Donegal!

[@macfourie]

7 thumbs down?? I Don't have to understand everything… :-) One thing is clear tho: this is a jewel! An endless source of positive energy! End of story! Deffo one of my faves!

[@tylerellison9834]

[@dandavis1953]

Yup...gotta pick my jaw up off the floor, just as soon as my head stops bobbin around!

[@GordanJaudet]

This is phenomenal.

[@darraghconnaughton5095]

Jordan Gaudet isn't it just. Mind blowing. They are having the utmost craic performing as well.

[@tkaultopbd1]

Ditto to what Eswar said. I smile every time I listen and my foot taps uncontrollably every time. My wife downstairs yells, Stop that thumping up there. Please come to the Chicago area someday. You guys are awesome.

[@TitusOates]

What a gem! Incredible performance, great sound, great camera work. Feeling very down until I came across this. Totally uplifting.

[@Javi-ho2js]

Grrrrrrrreaaaaaaaaat!!! Thsnk U from Bsrcelona! Tàdgh.

[@jimmcgettigan1326]

Powerfully presented by clearly talented musicians, really enjoying their own outstanding rendition.👏

[@barbarafrancis3779]

Can’t stop listening and dancing. Hoping to learn a couple of these tunes!

[@Hancsuka]

I love this song and it soo good to see how you enjoy to play music. :)

[@LanzaroteShowcase]

They both are amazing.

[@rogergreen7660]

Had hoped to see Coig playing in Belper, Derbyshire, just down the road from us, two months ago but the gig sold out too quickly! Hardly surprising, they're a fantastic band. Now using this track as part of my daily lockdown exercise regime, with a mix of dad dancing, Riverdance, Cajun and some sequence steps I picked up during a year's lessons. I have to pace myself, go off too fast and I run out of steam before the six minutes are up

[@christopherreilly5339]

This is one of the most infectious melodies ever. So snappy and up beat. Heck, I got tired just watching the feet.

[@francescasetaro6679]

I stomped along and was happy, not tired :)

[@udayalazarus5422]

Awesome and amazing..full of verve. Can't keep my feet down..just didn't get the chance to attend the festival while in NS in 2014. But played fiddle in cape Breton during a visit to Margree valley.i am hopeful of attending Celtic colours soon. It's my dream.

[@celticcolours]

This is awesome so driving, brilliant, the biggest laugh I’m surrounded by these so called trad bands,,, and the sad part is,,,, they actually believe they sound like this,,,, oh they can dream on I suppose,,,, but this is how it’s done 😂😂👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@neilgauld2817]

What is the name of the tune ?

[@stefanopeca6300]

I love how with most of these awesome Cape Breton bands the musicians are always refined and stylish except for the pianists (and sometimes guitarists) which always look like the should be in a hardcore metal band haha

[@captainbossman1016]

Can you blame them? The Cape Breton piano style is absolutely crazy and the guitar style is fire as well. It's also funny to see Dave MacIsaac's transformation for example when it comes to his looks, he started off looking refined and stylish and over time his looks became more and more crazy as he aged and it totally fits him!

[@gerald4013]

Why are they called "còig"? It means "five" in Scottish Gaelic but they are only 4 :-)

[@captainbossman1016]

The started off as a band of five but pretty early on one of them left but they didn't want to change their name

[@normsutherland660]

In Gàidhlig Còig means 5. Why are there only 4 members?

[@marconatrix]

Có aig tha fios??

[@benjaminmassey7260]

The cameraman is the 5th.

[@normsutherland660]

Jag har alla år sett mig som en kattmänniska. Man får ju aldrig glömma att nämna The Dubliners och Finbar och Eddie Furey samt Irlands bästa Ceili-band som inte är saw doctors, gissa?
