 | | A psaltery, explains Randy Kochel, who plays one in the band, is a triangular string instrument, which is hand-held and played with a bow. |
 | | Filling out the band are Doug Hostetler on guitars and vocals, Heidi Csallner on fiddle, and John Dreibelbis who plays the bodhran, which Kochel describes as an "Irish goatskin drum played with a small stick." Dreibelbis also plays the concertina, a small, hexagonal instrument similar to an accordion, plus the flute, whistles and tenor banjo. |
 | | For their St. Patrick's Day show at the Dispensing Company, Kochel says they plan on doing "Authentic Irish music...Most of the songs people think of as Irish, like 'When Irish Eyes Are Smiling,' were written by people in New York." Still, he concedes that the group may have to bend their standards a little. |
