Moch Pryderi is one of Virginia’s oldest Pan-celtic bands. Together for 18 years, the band performs the traditional celtic reels, jigs, and ballads from Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Brittany and Galicia with occasional forays into traditional Appalachian American music. The band has extensive experience playing in Celtic festivals, Irish Pubs, St. Patrick’s day events, Burns nights, and Welsh festivals throughout the eastern US. The band’s instrumentation consists of Celtic Harps, including the rare Welsh Triple Harp, Irish Bouzouki, Fiddle, Welsh Crwth, Bodhran, small pipes, Welsh pibgorns and whistles.

As “Hard Tack & Sow Belly” the band performs a vast aray of Civil War music for balls, dances, formal dinners, re-enactments and parties.
