Danny Noveck plays Irish music on guitar, fiddle and mandolin. He’s known in the contra dance world for his 1990s recordings with Kerry Elkin and Kate Barnes and he tours with the band Fresh Fish. Since then, he’s been a sought-after accompanist in the Chicago, New York and Boston Irish music scenes. Danny has toured and recorded with a wide range of musicians including John Whelan, Ruthie Dornfeld’s American Café Orchestra, Baltimore’s Old Bay Ceili Band and most recently, the Dead String Ensemble with Flynn Cohen and the late John McGann. A noted composer, Danny’s reel “Sligo Creek” can be heard around the world in dances and sessions. For several years, Danny lived in northern Mexico with the Tarahumara tribe, where he learned to play for dances and curing ceremonies. He’s now writing a book on the experience.
