~ Lute driven songs for modern folk ~ In the wake of Ronn McFarlane's 2009 Grammy Award nomination for the recording Indigo Road (consisting of all original lute music) Ayreheart was founded by McFarlane and is dedicated to expanding the musical spectrum of the lute in the modern era. Ayreheart's genre-blending style of music is performed by a multi-talented band of singer/musicians who wield one of the most unique collection of ancient and modern instruments to ever share the same stage.
