Keltikon

Keltikon, with its energetic Celtic Rock & Folk Punk, is since 2012 one of the most active Celtic Rock bands in Switzerland. Original songs as well as traditional Irish and Scottish jigs, reels and ballads, are combined with heavy rock and folk punk to create a unique sound. The band was main act at Switzerland’s biggest Irish Festival, shared the stage with international acts in the last years and and released a new album in May 2020.
 2018, on their first tour of Ireland playing in Kilkenny and Donegal, the band was welcomed with open arms and overwhelmed with positive feedback to be asked to play again, due to Covid19 postponed to 2021.

Skilled musicians with decades of experience, not only of Scottish and Irish traditional music, weave Rock, Ska, Neo-Folk and Baltic elements together to create an individual, dynamic rock concept. 
Experience shows that Keltikon’s original songs don’t have to play second fiddle to the old traditionals or covers when they’re playing live - sometimes somber and melancholic, but mostly full of exuberant energy and just a bit of barefaced cheek.
 Folky, rock stomping, fast as lightning and with a handful of ballads thrown in, the band plays tribute to old bards as well as Flogging Molly or the Pogues. The repertoire is rounded off with famous well-loved Irish songs, of course, so let’s get the party started, Sláinte! https://www.keltikon.com https://facebook.com/keltikon https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRUby_0xfx4_ogU5eq1TPxw
