The New Highland Way

In the last few months Highland Way has been slowly evolving. Heloise and Rich have moved onto other musical projects while we've been joined by Ned Giblin and Freddy Faith. We will miss Heloise and Rich and wish them success in their various projects.

Freddy started playing intermittently with us about a year ago. It is his percussion that you hear in our version of Caledonia.

Paul and myself have been joining Ned here and there for the last 6 years. So it was no surprise when we asked him to join us.

Both Ned and Freddy have brought a new energy to the band. Ned is a native Irishman, a vocalist who plays a host of traditional instruments, including, mandolin, whistle, bodhran, and guitar. Freddy is an energetic and animated drummer and percussionist. We are ready to shake up audiences around the country. Look out for us in a town near you.

Farewell to Good Friends

Heloise and Richie have officially left Highland Way. We wish them the best in their other musical endeavors.

The band now consists of Brian Caldwell, Ned Giblin, Paul Castellanos, and Freddy Faith.

Look for us at festivals and theaters next year. If any other shows come up before then, we'll be sure to let you all know.
