craic (krak), n. fun, amusement, enjoyment
craicdown, n. a good time

Combining a technical mastery of their instruments with a passion for their playing, Craicdown performs acoustic roots music with a high-energy, rock inspired flare. The band's repertoire draws from many sources, including the jigs and reels of the Celtic cultures, Brazilian choros, the swing musettes of Paris, American roots, and original compositions.

Craicdown features Rob Sharer on guitar, flute, fiddle and vocals, David DiGiuseppe on accordion and Irish cittern, and Jim Roberts on percussion. With a distinctive and unique sound, this trio brings to the stage musical inspiration, a fire in their fingers, and a love for their art.

"Craicdown was brilliant! Your energy was
the perfect complement to the day."

Gary Mitchell
Ocrafolk Festival Director
