Mostly Irish traditional music, but also some Scottish, English, and other. Great tunes for dancing as well as a variety of songs.

Jil Chambless—vocals, flute, whistle. Originally from Montgomery AL but now residing in Tuscaloosa, Jil has been a prominent figure on the Alabama Celtic music scene since the late 1980s. She still performs regularly with various Celtic music groups around the country and abroad, including Henri’s Notions, the Ed Miller Trio, Vulcan Eejits!, Scooter Muse, Don Penzien, Mairtin De Cogain, John Whelan, and others. She has completed several recording projects with Henri’s Notions, guitarist Scooter Muse, Ed Miller, fiddler John Taylor, and jazz trumpeter Rob Alley.

Dan Vogt — guitar, bouzouki, vocals. Not a native of Alabama, but living in Tuscaloosa since the early 1980s, Dan is relatively new to the playing of Celtic music. He is a long-time rocker, playing electric guitar in various Tuscaloosa-based rock bands, including The Peace Frogs (with Jil Chambless), Opus Dopus, and The DTs, The Hedtones, The Bonaires, and many more. Although he’s been listening to Celtic music and attending many Celtic music events with Jil for over 30 years, in 2010 he became interested in playing Celtic-style acoustic guitar in DADGAD tuning. Now he’s even taken up the bouzouki and tenor banjo! Dan and Jil can be found playing around Tuscaloosa and at regional Celtic festivals as a duo or with the Vulcan Eejits! Dan also works at The Guitar Gallery.

Jack Vogt -- drum set, vocals. Jack is a professional jazz drummer and composer located in the central Alabama area. Born and raised in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, Jack studied jazz drumming at the University of New Orleans. He now lives in Tuscaloosa and is a popular drummer-for-hire in the heart of Alabama.
