Artist description Neo-celtic groove-a-latious mondo-pop indulgence! Many bands have tried to bind the heart of Celtic music to the soul of rock and roll, but none so successfully as Jiggernaut. A group founded on contradiction, their sound is a rich mixture of old and new, traditional and contemporary. Fueled by white-hot piping, smoking accordion, fiery vocals, and an irresistible groove, they are setting out to redefine Celtic music for the 21st century.
