The Kinnigans warm stage presentation compliments their mastery of the music. 

The powerful combination of fiddle, pipes, flute, melodeon, guitar, vocals and a bit of Irish sean nós dancing offers a classic traditional Irish performance best experienced live to appreciate!

 

The Kinnigans are...

John Maschinot plays uilleann pipes and Irish flute - and has been for the past 4 decades. John has performed and toured with several notable bands including The Buddy O’Reilly Band, Ah Surely and Celtic Fire.

​

Evan Kinney plays guitar and fiddle and sings. Evan’s a multi-instrumentalist as well as a multi-genre musician, crossing over from Irish to “old-time” music with ease. Evan’s performed with The Griddle Lickers and Ah Surely, and extensively with his brother Mickey Nelligan. 

​

Mickey Nelligan plays melodeon (button accordion), banjo and fiddle. Mickey hails from a musical family (including his brother Evan Kinney) and performs with his new Orleans based band The Sisters Street Aces.
