Read about us in The Union:  
“For the love of music: Three Times Through reimagine, blend traditional and modern music”

People stop, stare, and ask us, “What is that instrument?” We are a colorful funky kinda Celtic string quartet.  We re-imagine and blend traditional and modern tunes and songs with hammered dulcimer, bodhran, concertina, mandolin, bouzouki, banjo, fiddle and guitar.
Our a cappella vocals transport you to the North Sea, the Caribbean, or to a remote village pub in County Clare . . .  Come curious, leave refreshed!

Why do we call ourselves Three Times Through? When Celtic musicians get together in a session they usually play each tune Three Times Through.

We started performing together during the Carter administration. Half of the quartet, Jeff and Gale Peach, moved to Nevada City in 1985. The other half, Greg and Margie Mirken, remained in Southern California, owned and ran a guitar store and continued performing. The Mirkens moved to Nevada City in 2008, and the four are having the time of their lives playing music together again.
