about us
The band's three members, Zac Gordon, Jariel Henthorn, and Jacob Coughlan, collaborate to bring old-world music to the modern world. Since the creation of Faire May in 2019 they have played at various venues around West Virginia, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. Faire May has been a featured artist at the Wheeling Celtic Festival, Oglebay Highland Games, First Fridays Festivals, the Monroe Theater, and several others.
At a Faire May concert you will hear anything from banjos to bagpipes, jaw harps and beyond. The band loves to play music in the genres of Appalachian, Irish, Scottish, Italian, Bluegrass, Early American, and Appalachian.
In addition to our usual concerts, Faire May also specializes in historical music from the 18th, and 19th centuries. The band is able to accurately demonstrate music from America's past while also authentically portraying garb from the colonial and Victorian Eras.
The band is sure to bring a smile to your face using their traditional style, their professional skills, and their youthful nature!
