Since 1980 this trio of modern day minstrels has traveled the world, bringing the Celtic culture to life with a stunning array of sounds produced on a variety of musical instruments (Celtic harp, violin, mandolin, accordion, penny-whistle, viola, mandola, guitar, spoons and the Irish drum - the bodhran). A Golden Bough performance is unique and lively entertainment that is fun for the whole family. Golden Bough's CD, Songs of Scotland "This CD is a sheer delight ... overall a refreshing and enjoyable collection of Scottish songs and music. They're certainly worth going to see." Tradition Magazine, UK "Margie Butler, Paul Espinoza and Kathy Ross Sierra have produced an eminently listenable collection of well-know Scots ballads and, although many of these have been done to death in the past, it's to Golden Bough's immense credit that their versions bring a feeling of freshness to the whole album. Recommended!" - Jim Marshall, The Folk Diary, UK "Margie Butler, Paul Espinoza and Kathy Ross Sierra have produced an eminently listenable collection of well-know Scots ballads and, although many of these have been done to death in the past, it's to Golden Bough's immense credit that their versions bring a feeling of freshness to the whole album.
