Two virtuoso musicians playing some of the most startling and original music you will ever encounter. Compelling, exciting and utterly original” Phil Beer

It’s the duo’s passion for spontaneity that has seen them being dubbed as the ingenious masters of folk-improv and gained them an enviable reputation for being a thrilling live act. Although Summerhayes prefers to explain their approach as: “turning folk music on its head. There’s something about the word ‘improvised’ that sounds woolly and there’s something much more coherent about what we’re making than just being an improvisation… We are creating in the moment together.”
Although it was the joy of creating music spontaneously that ultimately led to the pair working together, prior to this both musicians have forged highly successful careers in the classical world.

The Ciderhouse Rebellion

Every The Ciderhouse Rebellion performance is uniquely magical, whether springing from a single unplanned note or a trad tune. Masters of improvisation, the duo is fiddle player Adam Summerhayes ("Paganini of the traditional violin.” fRoots) and master accordionist Murray Grainger.
