Kathleen Finnegan (Finn) and Diane Schaffer (Dee) offer Celtic and traditional music shaped by the extraordinary blend of flute and folk harp. They provide music for spiritual occasions, including weddings, and also dining and party entertainment, tailoring their selections to the season and the special requirements of each event.
Finn ‘n Dee also offer house concert programs of varying lengths. These programs include Celtic stories and poetry as well as music and are crafted to reflect the spirit of each turn in the Celtic calendar.
Kathleen Finnegan has played with numerous musical ensembles in the Rogue Valley since 1995 and is currently a member of the New Winds of the Rogue Woodwind Quintet. Diane Schaffer accompanied Kathleen for four years of seasonal music until, in 2002, their mutual love for the lyric tradition in Celtic music led them to a permanent collaboration as Finn ‘n Dee.
