Biddy played in Yachats many years ago. Since that time, and with a few new members, they have become a popular and well-respected addition to many Celtic festivals and events in the Northwest. We are very pleased to have them joining us this year.
In addition to their appearances on the Commons concert stage, they will also be playing for our Sunday afternoon ceili.
Biddy on the Bench’s origins goes back to the winter of 2013 when the founding members met largely out of coincidence. Kevin, Casey, Noah, and Nick began carving out a niche in Portland, Oregon’s folk scene with a combination of ballads, pub classics, rebel songs, harmonized shanties, and traditional tunes. 2017 saw the arrival of Tristan, followed by his brother, Trevor. An ever-increasing schedule of pub gigs, Highland games, Celtic festivals, and private events around the Northwest cultivated a supportive and widespread audience.
