Inspired by medieval and Celtic music heritage from across Europe, PerKelt blends many different genres into the characteristic sound they call ‘speed folk’. Their fast, complicated, yet powerful rhythms and Celtic melodies have become their trademark over the years, reminiscent of progressive folk pioneers Jethro Tull.
They met in the mystical underworld of London, and touring the world they invite their audience to enjoy their free spirit, joy of life and love for music. Drawing inspiration from paganism of all kinds, their songs often tell stories from the realm of magic, nature and the beautiful human hearts.
Often praised for the energetic authenticity of their performance and the spiritual depth of the journey they take their audience on, PerKelt have released five critically acclaimed albums, received various awards from the music industry, and performed hundreds of shows all over Europe.
