NoCrows New 2012 Line Up

NoCrows New 2012 Line Up

Sligo-based eclectic music ensemble NoCrows have announced their festival and concert line up for 2012. Long time collaborator, Russian virtuoso violinist Oleg Ponomarev, who rose to fame in the 90’s with Russian Gypsy group Loyko, takes over the fiddle role from Steve Wickham who will be taking a sabbatical with his other group, The Waterboys, promoting their W.B. Yeats Project.

On rare occasions Steve will be guesting with NoCrows for some concerts. NoCrows will continue to play Steve’s compositions in his absence and hopefully he will be able to join them more regularly again in 2013.

Oleg and three of the founder members, Anna Houston, Felip Carbonell and Eddie Lee, have already toured successfully in Ireland and abroad, most lately in Switzerland in 2011.
