The climax of all these shows over the past months must surely be the appearance of Richard Wood and his band on the Rogue stage. This musician, who is a walking advertisement for the province of Prince Edward Island, enthralled concert goers in a fantastic night of music. Having played fiddle since he was 11 years old and step-dancing since he was eight, he is now in his late teens. Richard Wood can be regarded as a maestro among fiddlers on the Canadian tour. A comparison with other performers is not required.
Wood has the raw fiddle playing talent to surge to the top.
No mean feat in a competitive music world. With an upcoming tour of Ireland in the works in August, look out for rave reviews from the ould sod when Richard Wood winds up audiences at concerts there during his European tour. He is without doubt a must to see, definitely worth the trip to see him perform. Wood has that aura about him that encapsulates an audience in little time on stage. Not only a great musician, he also has the vocal capacity to humour and entertain those who care to listen.
