The name is an Old Scots word meaning a charm, magic spell or piece of mischief and it aptly describes the unexpected twists and turns in their musical arrangements, likewise the compelling potency of their musicianship.

Originally formed as a quartet, Cantrip sprung from a local session in Edinburgh fifteen years ago.

Their driving music immediately caught the attention of the masses, and they were quickly signed to the Foot Stompin' label.

With their first album 'Silver' (2001) in hand, Cantrip made its way across the water to the United States, where they were received with roars and shouts (of enjoyment).

After years of significant touring, the band parted ways with Foot Stompin' and began producing albums on their own.

Two albums later ('Boneshaker' in 2005 and 'Piping the Fish' in 2008), Cantrip had cemented itself as a perennial figure.

After a period of hiatus in which children were born and continents were left for new ones, Cantrip redefined its sound.

Trimming itself to a trio, the band tightened its arrangements while expanding its influence.

New inspirations began creeping into the sound, complementing the traditional foundation of the band.

The enhanced sound has been catching the ear of listeners and concert goers all over again.

The band's much anticipated fourth release 'The Crossing' is in production, and it looks to be as exciting and full of energy as ever.
