The Music of The Hounds of Cuchulain

Paul with the Victoria BC band, the Hounds of Culchulain

The Hounds of Cuchulain are a band that I like. 

They are a high-energy Celtic folk band from Victoria, British Columbia. They started in 2021. 

The band plays many instruments, including a penny whistle, the guitar, the fiddle, harp, banjo and many more!

The band is led by Wolf Edwards, who sings and plays the guitar. He is joined by:

  • Madeleine Townley: Vocals, Irish harp, and tin whistle
  • Briana Kennedy: Fiddle and vocals
  • Dexter Simpson: Irish tenor banjo
  • Benjamin Garrison: Mandolin and vocals
  • Jeff Feltmate: Bodhrán and fiddle
  • Theodore Waite on double bass
The Hounds of Cuchulain

The Hounds have performed at my day program. They are coming to my birthday this year! The reason I’m writing about them is that I want everybody to know about them. They are a great Irish band!

Wolf is a good friend of mine and the Hounds have played at my birthday parties for three years in a row now!

The first spot that I saw them was at the Sidney Market a few years ago. They play Irish music. They also play at the Irish Times Pub and at the Oaks in Oak Bay. 

I really enjoy having dinner and listening to their music.

A few of my favorite songs are Farewell to Nova Scotia, The Black Velvet Band, The Irish Rover and Whisky In the Jar! 

You can check out where and when they are performing next on their website!

If you love Irish music as much as I do, then try and find their music on CD or YouTube!

I love the Hounds of Cuchulain!
