With a distinctive blend of more than one hundred strings, Springtide has been delighting audiences for two decades. Featuring Jackie Luke on the unique hammered dulcimer, the innovative Canberra cellist Rita Woolhouse, and multi-instrumentalist and harpist, Greg Wilson they perform Celtic influenced vocal and instrumental music, and touch on classical and world music genres. When they toured New Zealand in 2016 they were described as “masters on their instruments, each taking their turn to wow us. There was humour and toe-tapping, beauty and tragedy.”

They have two recordings to their credit, an instrumental collection The Wisdom of Trees, and Spindrift which features their vocal repertoire.
