O'LEARY, TWEED, & DEIVERT
features Christy O'Leary (Ireland), Karen Tweed (UK), with Bert Deivert (US)


O’Leary, Tweed, and Deivert are a new trio of foreign musicians based in Sweden, breaking rules and bending borders with their musicality, verve, and sheer joy in playing together. For a little taste of what they sound like, download an mp3 file of their opening set, I'd Rather Be Married/Elizabeth Kelly's from their appearance at the Celtic Connections Festival in Glasgow, Scotland January 17th, 2005 --- and a great song called The Groves of Donaghmore.

Christy O’Leary (IRE) and Bert Deivert (US) have played together for 5 years. Matching Christy’s Irish traditional artistry, blazing technique, and matchless vocals with Bert’s eclectic mix of American old timey, delta blues, jazz, Swedish trad, and Irish/Scots influences on string instruments makes for a style that breathes new life into old standards. Their first cd together, SONG'S SWEET CARESS has received worldwide rave reviews. They mix Irish, Scottish, and some Swedish tunes and songs with exciting original material. They have an ease and rapport with any audience that charms and engages.

Now teaming up with ace piano accordion player and vibrant personality Karen Tweed (UK), this group looks forward to playing their way into audiences’ hearts and minds all over the world.
