Cider House Rebellion

The duo brings together master accordionist Murray Grainger and fiddle player Adam Summerhayes. It's the duo's passion for spontaneity that has seen them being dubbed as the ingenious masters of folk-improv and gained them an enviable reputation for being a thrilling live act. Although Summerhayes prefers to explain their approach as: turning folk music on its head. There's something about the word improvised that sounds woolly and there's something much more coherent about what were making than just being an improvisation We are creating in the moment together.

Although it was the joy of creating music spontaneously that ultimately led to the pair working together, prior to this both musicians have forged highly successful careers in the classical world.
