Piskey Led
Offering a set full of songs, tunes and tales cast from the ore of Celtic folk tradition. Piskey Led’s intricate arrangements on an array of acoustic instruments, stitch a seam along Cornish - Irish musical borders.
With a core of flute, guitar, double bass, and vocals, Katie Lower, James Bower, and Josh Goodey have been sharing all sorts of stages for nearly a decade. In 2023 they launched their debut album full of “fresh and original material” (RnR Magazine) with tunes that “set faces smiling across the country.” (Adam Walton, BBC Introducing). Autumn 2025 brings an expansion for Piskey Led with the addition of uilleann pipes (Jason Rouse) and percussion (Laurence Wickham) to the established line up. It’s a huge sound - full of atmosphere and energy!
To be piskey led in Cornish folklore is to be guided wayward by mischievous, mystical beings - the bedrock for spooky stories and otherworldly adventures. With a progressive take on traditional tunes, melded with exciting new compositions, Piskey Led enchant and carry their audience with them in a new direction - merrily dancing on their way!
