Randal Bays is a fiddler and guitarist well-known in the traditional music world. He lives near Seattle where he plays and teaches fiddle and has for many years directed summer music camps devoted to traditional music. He’s performed and recorded with a number of great traditional musicians including James Kelly, James Keane, Daithi Sproule, Martin Hayes and many more.
 
John Coyne hails from Limerick and has been resident in Boston for some years. His excellent bouzouki playing and fine singing have made him the “first call” accompanist for many great traditional musicians. He’s worked with some of the great players of the day including Mary MacNamara, Mickey Dunne and Frankie Gavin.
​ 
Says Randal… “I am especially looking forward to playing in Amherst with my good friend John Coyne and our sons Owen Bays on concertina and Rory Coyne on accordion. Both boys are excellent musicians and have won awards for their playing... they play wonderful, living Irish music with great style and energy. John and I are delighted to have them along on this tour."
