Event Description

First coming together as a duo way back in 2007, Black Angus has always been about good humour, good friends, and good music! More and more since then, Alex MacCuaig & Gareth Hurwood have shared the vocal spotlight as more and more of the lyrics work their way into Alex’s head and pour forth in high lonesome harmonies that turn heads and underscore the poetry of their repertoire.

Gareth and Alex continue to thrive on our Island, bringing their own style, energy, and passion to a growing catalogue of song, from traditional & contemporary Irish, to acoustic roots, Americana, West Coast Celtic, blues, and old-time! To make it a powerhouse trio, their first choice of lead player has always been The Fiddler, and for January 7 at the VFMS it’s one of their favourites and ours — Sarah Tradewell!

“VFMS has been a touchstone engagement for Black Angus from the beginning; taking us from coffee-house to public house, from festival stage to concert-hall. Black Angus has the VFMS to thank for always offering a “welcome home”, and a stalwart witness to their joy, their success, and their longevity. Come for to sing, to toe-tap, knee-slap, cat-call, and share - see you there!”
