McPeake
"McPEAKE’s music maintains an anchor in the past generations of the iconic McPeake Family but sets off into a new territory.
McPEAKE’s unique blend of indie, folk, and Irish music attracts widely diverse audiences that might not otherwise commingle. Young and old are drawn in by McPEAKE’s live performances, from heart pumping instrumentals to stirring lyrics through to their cover of The Beatles ‘Norwegian Wood’ – nodding to the The McPeake Family’s connection to The Beatles in the 1960s."
