Kevin Crawford

Kevin Crawford is a flute, tin whistle and bodhrán player. Born in Birmingham, England to Irish parents who emigrated from Miltown Malbay, County Clare. He later moved to West Clare to improve his music and become more exposed to traditional Irish music.

After recording and co-producing what he described as his most "traditional" CD with "Grianán," a group including Siobhán and Tommy Peoples, Niamh De Burca, P.J. King, Martin Murray, Paul McSherry, John Maloney, and Pat Marsh (released in 1993), Crawford joined "Moving Cloud" in 1993 and then "Lúnasa" in 1998, replacing Michael McGoldrick. Crawford has evolved into becoming the "frontman" for Lúnasa during their live performances, due to his engaging personality and dry sense of humour along with his superb musicianship.
