They’re back, and they’re better than ever. We are so excited that we got a spot in Scythian’s busy St. Patrick’s Day week schedule. Don’t miss this fabulous night
Twin Fiddles. Driving rhythm. Fun for the whole family.
Led by Ukrainian-American brothers Alex and Danylo Fedoryka, Scythian (pronounced “sith-ee-in”) plays roots music from Celtic, Eastern European, and Appalachian traditions with thunderous energy, technical prowess, and storytelling.
They bring various influences together to create a conglomerate which is technically precise and steeped in various folk traditions, beckoning crowds into a barn-dance, rock concert experience.
The classically-trained Fedorykas grew up on Ukrainian folk music and bluegrass, bassist Ethan Dean was raised on the greats of 60’s & 70’s folk-rock, and Louisiana-born drummer Johnny Rees brings a Cajun backbeat to the Celtic-Americana fusion—giving Scythian yet another dimension which keeps audiences entertained and moving. Through their music, they bring the spirit of roving Ukrainian fiddlers to their own audience; and make everyone stop for a moment and dance without a care!
We’re excited to have this powerhouse band kick off our 2024 season March 10th on the Historic Main Stage.
Join us to experience what The Washington Post said of Scythian: “[their] enthusiasm is contagious, and shows seem to end with everyone dancing, jumping around or hoisting glasses.”
Local favorite “Basil and the Wrathbones” will open.
The Bar at the Paradiso opens at 5:30—pick up a Guinness or one of the cocktails crafted by our talented bartenders to enjoy during the show!
