„Cara sounds like Cara – there can be no better recommendation!“ writes the trade magazine Folker, hitting the nail on the head.
The Celtic Folk band, honored with two Irish Music Awards, consists of Irish, Scottish, and German musicians and has earned an excellent reputation over its 19 years of existence for its innovative arrangements, original compositions, and songwriting, virtuoso performances, and a charismatic stage presence. The range of their music goes far beyond the usually known Irish folk music.
CARA stands for the successful combination of the singing of two outstanding female vocalists with convincing Irish instrumental pieces at the highest level. Virtuoso solos on the Irish bagpipe, rapid violin passages, moving ballads, and masterful guitar playing – the list could go on for a long time.
Celtic-Rock judges: “After 15 years, Cara has not only achieved a level of technical maturity unmatched by others, but also developed a confident unique style that organically blends influences from both sides of the Atlantic.”

Cara – Award-winning Celtic Music - Eine Irish Folk Band

With CARA, an Irish Folk band is visiting Ahaus that seeks its equal in authenticity, virtuosity, and musical diversity in this country. When they play, sound spaces and images unfold that take the listeners on a journey into poetic worlds while never losing their contemporary relevance. Enchanting ballads about love and betrayal, about magical powers, about longing and revenge, about dark, stormy times and the ever-blooming hope alternate with the typical lively dance melodies that are still played in the pubs of Ireland today.

For 21 years, the band has been touring through Germany and the world, playing not only traditional songs but also their own modern songs and tunes. Seven tours have taken them alone to the USA. Folk aficionados know - those who dare to venture into this genre on international terrain will be measured by a different standard. CARA has passed these trials by fire with flying colors and is highly regarded by fellow musicians from Ireland and Great Britain. They have already been awarded the Irish Music Award twice.

Today, the band consists of a multinational lineup. The charismatic frontwoman Gudrun Walther, a singer and perhaps the most accomplished fiddler in the country, has realized numerous projects with renowned musicians. Her compositions have been covered by international bands. With Kim Edgar, one of the best British songwriters belongs to CARA. Her songs, composed on the piano and impressively interpreted, reflect her enthusiasm for horror and myths, history and feminism, earning her the title of "Scotland’s very own Tori Amos." She can trace her family roots back to the northwest of Ireland, to County Donegal. Simon Pfisterer is an outstanding interpreter of the Uilleann Pipes - the Irish bagpipe - having studied the instrument at the University in Limerick, Ireland and holding a BA in Irish Music and Dance. The trained jazz guitarist and producer Jürgen Treyz has released over 80 CDs of his own music and received numerous awards. It is not least his arrangements, praised by international trade magazines, that give CARA their unique sound.

Cara - Celtic Folk

CARA is a multinational Celtic-Folk band with members from Ireland, Scotland, and Germany. They create their own sound, with the voices of the two singers Gudrun Walther and Kim Edgar at the center. The songs alternate with rapid instrumental pieces, brought to life by the virtuoso interplay of Gudrun Walther's fiddle and Uilleann pipes, the Irish bagpipe. The latter is played by Cara's new member Simon Pfisterer, who studied this extraordinary instrument at the university in Limerick. The band’s elaborate arrangements bear the signature of Jürgen Treyz, guitarist, producer, and musical mastermind of the band. Rounded off by the charmingly humorous presentation, an evening with Cara guarantees the highest musical enjoyment and best entertainment. Multiple Irish Music Awards, tours, and acclaimed concerts in the USA, Australia, Ireland, Scotland, Denmark, Germany, France, Benelux, Austria, Italy, and Switzerland attest to the band's success story.

Cara - Celtic Folk Music

CARA is a multinational Celtic Folk band that has won two Irish Music Awards and other prizes. In 2003, four closely-knit folk musicians came together to form CARA (Gaelic for 'friend'), and to this day, friendship, alongside their shared love for traditional music of Ireland and Scotland, plays a central role in the band.

In the more than 20 years, CARA has built an excellent reputation. Often highlighted are the innovative arrangements, the original compositions, and the songwriting, as well as the virtuoso performance and a charismatic stage presence. They create their own sound, in which the voices of the two singers Gudrun Walther and Kim Edgar take center stage. The vocal spectrum ranges from dreamy ballads to archaic Gaelic Mouth Music to their own songs with current societal and political relevance.

The songs alternate with fast-paced instrumental pieces, driven by the virtuosic interplay of fiddle and Uilleann Pipes. The Irish bagpipes, which were designated a UNESCO World Heritage in 2017, are played by CARA's new member Simon Pfisterer, who studied this extraordinary instrument at the University of Limerick.

Cara - Celtic Folk Music - Tour 2025

The musical genes of Cara reside in Ireland, in Scotland, but also in Germany. A mix that has already earned the multinational band several awards. The artists shine with innovative arrangements, original compositions, and songwriting, all wrapped in a virtuoso performance and a charismatic stage presence.

Whether dreamlike ballads, archaic Gaelic Mouth Music, or original songs with current socio-political references, the two lead singers Gudrun Walther and Kim Edgar always complement each other with dreamlike certainty. Additionally, the audience can look forward to fast-paced instrumental pieces characterized by the virtuosic interplay of fiddle and Uilleann pipes. A true delight, as the Irish bagpipe was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage in 2017. But the other band members will also score with solos among the audience.

Rounded off by a charmingly humorous presentation, an evening with Cara guarantees the highest musical enjoyment and best entertainment.
