Celtic fusion band that formed in Clearwater, Florida in 2003. The band self-proclaims their sound as "Traditional Celtic Music of the early 21st century," and "Eclectic World-Fusion Music," describing their multi-faceted and jam-induced music.Highlighting the original compositions of two-time World Champion bagpiper
Adam Quinn (formerly of theSimon Fraser University Pipe Band ), the band is composed of 5 core members who integrate the sounds of bagpipes, guitar, double bass, didgeridoo & Scottish snare with a variety of African drums to create a unique sound. The music of Lucid Druid fuses the qualities of traditional & modern Scottish music with elements of rock, jazz, country, and traditional African rhythms. Their unusual arrangements and exploratory jams make their music un-comparable to anything else being produced today in the genre ofCeltic fusion music.The band still maintains their original lineup which consists of the following members:
*Adam Quinn -Bagpipes ,Degerpipes , Shuttlepipes,Didgeridoo ,Clarinet
*Steve Turner -Ashiko ,Djembe , Drum Set,Didgeridoo
