About the show
A thrilling fusion of fire and finesse, Vagabond is the award-winning duo of virtuoso violinist Adam Summerhayes and master accordionist Murray Grainger. Described as “intoxicating” (The Times) and “breathtaking” their music is a spellbinding journey through the seductive melodies of Gypsy, Tango, and Klezmer traditions.
With over a decade of musical adventures together, their performances are a dynamic blend of dazzling technique, raw passion, and deep musical connection. Expect a foot-stomping, heart-stirring experience from two musicians at the height of their artistry.
Evoking the smoky intimacy of a Parisian café, the swirling drama of Eastern European folk, or the playful fire of a spontaneous musical duel.
Featuring - The Ciderhouse Rebellion

Every The Ciderhouse Rebellion performance is uniquely magical, whether springing from a single unplanned note or a trad tune. Masters of improvisation, the duo is fiddle player Adam Summerhayes ("Paganini of the traditional violin.” fRoots) and master accordionist Murray Grainger.
