Barrowburn is a Raleigh, NC based band presenting traditional Celtic music on acoustic instruments. The band prides itself in its versatility. They are equally at home ripping through a set of jigs or reels as they are rendering the simple beauty of a slow air or lament. They perform both legacy and contemporary ballads from the tradition as well as comical pub songs that are best accompanied by a swinging pint of Guinness. In concert, they demonstrate their love for Celtic music, but do so from an American perspective.

Barrowburn has played at numerous festivals including the Gaelic Festival in Raleigh, Celtic Fest in Cary, and the International Festival in Raleigh. They often play for dancers at both Céilí and Contra dances as well as private parties and receptions throughout North Carolina. For over ten years, they have been the house band at Tir na nOg, Raleigh's premier Irish Pub.
