Patric Petrie  

fiddle, mandolin, vocals

Patric is a well-known and much loved Irish fiddler and vocalist whose own band, Skelpin, was a finalist for the 2003 San Diego Music Awards in the World Music category.

Skelpin plays at many of San Diego's finest Irish pubs and often plays with the Chieftains when they are in town.

A trad/progressive Irish band with strong ties to Ireland, Skelpin (Gaelic for "spank me")  has performed at the Adams Avenue Street Fair, NBC, and at events ranging from Ireland to Mexico.  They are truly Southern California's premier Irish band.
