Leahy is the Canadian powerhouse of eight musical brothers and sisters who entrance audiences whenever they play. The band is a whirlwind triple-threat of fiddle-driven music, dance, and vocals augmented by keyboards and percussion. Their music combines the influence of their Irish and Scottish roots with their inherent desire to widely travel the musical map. The Los Angeles Times raved “[Leahy’s] approach seems so gloriously free of the commercial pollution of so much American pop that it felt like a tonic for the spirit.” And in Chicago, the critic proclaimed that Leahy’s “...ferocious and extremely energetic works gain momentum through plenty of acoustic instruments...” - Chicago Sun-Times
