Celtic Music with Craićns Lament

  • The Drunken Poet 65 Peel Street West Melbourne, VIC, 3003 Australia (map)

Craic’n is a dynamic Celtic folk duo hailing from Melbourne, bringing the heart and soul of traditional Irish and Scottish music to the people.

Featuring the exceptional talents of Dannie McKenzie on guitar and Alex Taylor on fiddle, they weave together the rich, time-honoured sounds of lively reels, jigs, and ballads with a passion that transports audiences straight to the heart of a bustling pub session.

With years of experience spanning multiple genres, Dannie and Alex bring their own unique flair and energy to the traditional repertoire, infusing each performance with spontaneity, warmth, and the raw joy of live folk music.

Whether it’s the foot-stomping drive of a fiery reel, the haunting beauty of a mournful lament, or the raucous camaraderie of a drinking song, Craic’n captures the magic of Celtic music in its purest form—alive, untamed, and brimming with storytelling.

Craic’n delivers the kind of music that makes you want to dance, sing, and raise a glass to the old ways.
