Stuart Helmintoller rounds out their sound on guitar, bouzouki, and mandolin. "We can sound pretty mellow if we want to," says Stuart. "But sometimes, depending on the gig, we bring in a percussion player for that World Beat sound." Recently the group has performed with various percussionists adding the sounds of djimbe, from Africa; dumbek, from the Middle East; and didgeridoo, from Australia.

"Nowadays, it seems like everyone claims to have that 'tribal' sound," says Stuart. "But take an Irish jig, throw in some ethnic percussion, and watch the people dance. Now THAT'S tribal!"
