Cricket

While Jim is at Sterling, he can always count on musical support from Cricket. A talented multi-instrumentalist with a true "jammer" attitude, Cricket has graced almost every Jim Hancock & Friends set at Sterling for the last five years or more. Shown here with Barby Holder and Jim while playing the bodhran, you might hear her play a pennywhistle or sing a harmony, depending on what will help the song. She is also the friend who introduced me to Duke the Drummer.

Make sure to catch her with her husband Gary and their own group, Celtic Spirit.
