Following the 11 AM service, join the local Celtic Folk group,“The Reelers” led by Nikelle and David Garcia and featuring Casey Mraz, along with our own Lars Fabricius-Olsen. You might fall in love with the guitar, the fiddle or tin whistle, or maybe the banjo or accordion. Join us as we celebrate the return of our marvelous Cathedral Choirs!
The Reelers are a modern Celtic rock band from Albuquerque, New Mexico. Blending traditional Irish fiddle tunes with boisterous, foot-stomping drinking songs, the Reelers harvest a sound that is both familiar and refreshingly new. The group’s fast-paced reels and heartwarming ballads create a festive atmosphere that inspires audiences to dance and sing along.
The band consists of Nikelle Garcia on fiddle, penny whistle, and vocals; David Garcia on guitar, bouzouki and vocals; Casey Mraz on guitar, vocals and accordion; Justin McLauchlin on bass; Dave Purcell on drums; and Lars Olsen on the banjo.
With their infectious energy, captivating melodies, and unmistakable blend of Celtic roots and Southwestern spirit, The Reelers are a not to be missed musical experience.
