From festival and intimate house concerts to BalFolk, Breton, and New England contra dances, Triton moves body and soul alike • De festivals et concerts intimes à danses balfolk, fest-noz breton, et contra de la Nouvelle Angleterre, Triton transporte l'esprit et le corps
Triton is the new musical triumvirate comprises veteran performers Jeremiah McLane, Timothy Cummings, and Alex Kehler. Hailing from Vermont and Québec, they offer music rooted in the traditional dance repertoire of Northwestern Europe. The three are masters of the piano accordion, the quieter, bellows-blown bagpipes, and fiddle and nyckelharpa, together creating a beguiling and orchestral blend which utterly subverts the common stereotypes of their Old World instruments. Their repertoire includes bourrées from central France, triple-time hornpipes from the Scottish Borders, the Swedish slängpolska, the Breton hanter dro, and compelling originals reflecting these influences. Unified by their zeal and musical craftsmanship, their performances are also punctuated with engaging commentary on the music and instruments.
