User:Voyagerfanatic/The Gothard Sisters

The Gothard Sisters are three sisters from the Pacific Northwest. They are all championship Irish dancers, winning awards in America as well as Ireland.

Their shows are packed full of fun for the whole family...from fast and flying strings (guitar and three violins), dueling drumming (two bodhrans) and daring dancing.

The three girls have been dancing and fiddling since a very young age, and grew up performing on stages in the Pacific Northwest. They have since broadened the performance horizons and have danced over stages in Wisconsin, Indiana and more in their Northwest tour in 2009.

Greta

Greta Gothard, age 22, is the oldest of the Gothard Sisters and does most of the music arranging and writing for the group. She plays guitar, violin and sings, as well as performing her Irish dancing.

Willow

Willow Gothard, age 20, is the middle sister in the Gothard Sisters group. She does the dance choreography and is the lucky person who gets to curl all the hair of the other girls before the show. She plays bodhran, violin and sings, as well as performing her Irish dancing.

Solana

Solana Gothard, age 14, is the youngest sister in the Gothard Sisters group. Solana is in charge of organizing all of our many papers and putting together the stage layouts every time we change one of our show plans. She also loves to bake cookies for our breaks between rehearsals. She sings the lead vocals for the group, and plays violin and bodhran, as well as performing her Irish dancing.
