Garnering rave reviews throughout Ohio and the surrounding states, Lone Raven perform an eclectic blend of traditional music from various areas of the world, as well as their own original compositions.

With over 20 instruments on stage, the band soars through everything from fiery Irish reels to Gypsy fiddle tunes and haunting airs. Their instrumentals are fueled by the twin fiddles of Elizabeth Blickenstaff and Kara Markley, while being driven by an explosive rhythm section consisting of Craig Markley and Sid Omasta, and featuring the award-winning guitar playing of Neil Jacobs. In addition, Kara’s highly acclaimed vocal stylings are showcased throughout each concert, performing songs in both English and Irish Gaelic, among others.

With this in mind, it is no wonder that Lone Raven is one of the area’s most “in-demand” acts. Their newest CD release, “Flight to the Hinterlands,” will be available in November of 2011. For more information, please visit their website at www.loneraven.com.
