    The 2007-08 Evenings of Cultural Arts series wraps up April 5, 2008 with the Sunnyvale debut of the contemporary traditional Celtic band Craicmore, performing traditional tunes so beautiful that Irish folklore credits faeries, or fallen angels, as the composers. Craicmore's music has been featured on television programs including CBS' Without a Trace and festivals throughout the Western states. Lead singer Nancy Johnstone's deep, velvety voice, unique in the genre, has become a signature of the Los Angeles-based group. Craicmore uses traditional Celtic instruments, accented with four-part harmonies, rhythmic hardshoe dancing, an East Indian shruti box and Australian didgeridoo, played by former Wicker Tinkers percussionist John MacAdams.
