Whorled

Artist Information

Described by Local Spins as “a road trip for the ears,” Whorled transports their audiences around the globe with fresh interpretations of re-imagined Celtic, bluegrass, French Café, and jazz influences. Whorled is guitarist and digeridooist Thom Jayne, fiddler and bodhrán player Keala Venema, and accordionist Mariko Venema. They met by chance at a traditional Irish session; the magic was immediate. Now, in their third year playing in public, Whorled has gained swift critical acclaim, winning two Jammie Awards for their 2023 debut album, “Reimagined” and having three tunes landing on WYCE’s top 100 spins of 2023.
