Bundle & Go

Bundle & Go is the duo of David and Suzanne Rhees, two stalwarts of the Twin Cities traditional music scene. They play an eclectic mix of vigorous Irish dance tunes, slow listening pieces, and unusual songs, with a generous sprinkling of tunes from related traditions — Cape Breton, Welsh, Scottish, French-Canadian, Métis, Appalachian and more.

Their instruments are equally diverse: Suzanne plays Irish flute, whistles and button accordion, while Dave plays fiddle, banjo, guitar, mandolin, harmonica, ukulele and feet.

Suzanne has played with accordion master Paddy O’Brien’s group, O’Rourke’s Feast, and Dave is a veteran of the band Roisin Dubh. They both were members of Contradictions, a contradance band, and La Traversée, a French-Canadian group. They founded the Keegan’s Irish Pub jam session in Minneapolis and have taught seminars and workshops on the roots and branches of Celtic music for the Irish Fair of Minnesota, the Minnesota Old Time and Bluegrass Association, and the Celtic Junction Arts Center.
