Bio
Since 1995, Christel Rice has created a sensational and unique style to traditional Irish flute playing. Having great-grandparents who emigrated from Ireland, one of them a local mandolin maker, she stayed true to her roots and began exploring the music. She has studied with the great Michael Rafferty of East Galway, Ireland where she has cut her teeth in the regional style of flute playing. Her influences include Matt Molloy, Tony Demarco, John Whelan, and Michael Rafferty to name a few....

I'm so glad you are playing the irish roots music. I'm Irish american, and Iam influenced somewhat by irish folk music, It's some of the most true and honest music ever made
