PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

Featuring father Darrell Casey and sons David and Nathan, Watercarvers Guild is an acoustic trio of multi-instrumentalist/singers who have been playing together since David and Nathan were old enough to pick up instruments. While they only decided to form into a three piece band in 2000, their lifelong rapport (not to mention their refined skills as musicians and singers) is evident from the moment they hit the stage.

With an onstage arsenal that includes guitars, mandolin, piano, bouzouki, electric bass and three voices, Watercarvers Guild has a habit of sounding a lot more than a typical folk trio, putting together some of the best melodies and most intricate arrangements this side of Nickel Creek.

With a father who is phenomenal on fingerstyle guitar and mandolin, a son with talent to spare on piano and bouzouki, and another son bringing rhythm to life on electric bass, this family group is producing a new contemporary acoustic sound that is at once refreshing and exhilarating. While their music shows influences of Celtic, bluegrass, pop and folk, it’s the clever dialogue between instruments and voices that is the signature sound of Watercarvers Guild. Music is clearly its own language for this family band; and one that they speak fluently.

Add to this mixture the warm, playful onstage ribbing between father and sons, and Darrell Casey’s dazzling performance on solo fingerstyle guitar, and you have a concert brimming over with more talent, variety and pure unadulterated joy than anyone would expect from a single night’s performance.

"With Watercarvers Guild, every song is like a musical gem,
carved and polished to bring out the very best it can offer.”
