Showcasing the talents of veteran Vermont musicians Mary McGinniss (vocals, guitar), Juliet McVicker (vocals, bass) and Steve Wienert (percussion), The Selkies weave melody and rhythms from the deep well of rock n’ roll, R&B, and Celtic song.  They play iconic classics from multiple genres with fresh interpretations of old classics as well as original music.  

​

McGinniss is a fourth generation Vermonter whose ancestors came from Ireland to Vermont in the 1800’s. An undeniable Celtic spirit suffuses her music with an emotional resonance that appeals to audiences of all ages.  Juliet McVicker has a prominent place among Vermont jazz musicians especially through her association with Pine Street Jazz and the storied Singers Circle. Among Vermont’s finest percussionists, Steve Weinart rounds out this venerable trio with impeccable timing and tastefully supportive percussion.  Joining them for this show will be Bakersfield’s favorite son Will Patton on tenor guitar, mandolin and dobro.
