First envisioned by venerable vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Andy Irvine (Planxty, Patrick Street), Mozaik is the ultimate global stringband — a truly international ensemble who can not only perform music from a wide array of cultures, but interweave their myriad influences into an entirely new sound. Consisting of Irvine, fellow Irish luminary Donal Lunny (bouzouki, guitar), American old-tyme fiddler/guitarist/vocalist Bruce Molsky, Dutch guitarist Rens Van Der Zalm, and Hungarian multi-instrumentalist Nicola Parov, Mozaik moves effortlessly from Celtic to old-tyme to Eastern European music, with intricate string arrangements complementing Andy’s and Bruce’s plaintive vocals.
