Fusing traditional and contemporary music styles, they create a powerfully uplifting and soulful performance, weaving a rhythmically driving and textured sound. 

Complemented by lively stepdancing, they bring life and fire into original tunes, songs, and high-energy repertoire from Scotland, Ireland, North America, and Scandinavia.

A musical dynamic duo.

Each an accomplished musician in their own right, with extensive performance history and accolades, Jocelyn and Ellen first joined forces in Glasgow in 2018.  Since then, the duo has been gracing stages and captivating audiences in North America, the UK, and Europe.

Global acclaim for Pettit and Gira’s talents.
