Oakland, California-based Celtic rock band AVALON RISING is known for its unique sound --
a blend of original rock, Celtic, and Medieval music. Their rich melodic acoustic/electric sound features brilliant male and female vocals
over intricate instrumental arrangements, supported by a vibrant rhythmic background. Their line-up includes electric and acoustic guitars,
electric violin, Celtic harp, flute, bass, mandocello, drums, and vocals.

With a repertoire that includes both original and traditional songs and ranges in feel from driving Celtic tunes
to haunting, atmospherically lovely harp-based ballads, Avalon Rising will enchant and excite you. Their lyrics,
including some in Medieval French and Portuguese, speak in a magical, evocative style in the same vein as Loreena McKennitt,
Dead Can Dance, and Renaissance with touches of Jethro Tull and the Grateful Dead.
