Award-winning guitarist Brad Prevedoros, acclaimed multi-instrumentalist Greg Joy, and percussion master Niel Golden create an exotic, unique synthesis including eastern, latin jazz, blues, flamenco, and celtic folk influences. It is brand new music grounded in many traditions.

“We were transported to another time and place…from the shores of Ireland, through England to the South to Spain and East to India it was a two hour musical journey steeped in tradition and rich in discoveries” Nicole Lalonde, Goldstream News

Collectively Three Worlds has over 100 years of performing experience, produced over twenty-five albums with a million copies sold worldwide and has earned a number of Juno and Western Canadian Music Award nominations.

Percussionist Niel Golden specializes in the tabla (Indian hand drums) and is known for his masterful interpretation of Indian classical music, blues and other world music styles. Niel also performs and composes on the new and elusive Hang (pronounced Hung), a flying sauceresque instrument from Switzerland invented in the year 2000. Greg Joy brings a fusion of celtic, baroque, and folk-rock to the mix through his mastery of the hammered dulcimer, flute and guitar. Guitarist Brad Prevedoros, renowned for his instrumental virtuosity and exuberant live performances, brings the latin, jazz and flamenco element to this shared musical adventure that is grounded in many traditions and yet, brand new.

“The audience was delighted and rapt throughout the performance. It was so musical you could feel your ears growing to hear it all” Priscilla Ewbank, Island Tides
