“...This is one of the best groups playing around Southern California today! The band is energetic, fun, and comprised of gifted musicians.”
— Irish Arts and Entertainment: Annual Irish Music Special

Sportive Tricks - Celtic with a Kick
A Southern California folk band formed in 2006 with traditional folk music influences, Sportive Tricks brings you Celtic with a kick. From time-honored sing-alongs to sea chanteys to covers with a twist to original songs, the seven members of Tricks each bring their voices, instrumental talents*, experience, and energy for a foot-tapping good time. Sportive Tricks plays year-round at events and shows, mostly in California and Nevada. If you're looking for a fun and versatile band that's equally at home at pubs, festivals, historical events, fairs, or private parties, drop us a line!
*Not kidding about this one. Most of us play multiple instruments, and one of us plays fifty-six of them. Really! Heck, five out of seven of us play bass.. Hence the Sportive Tricks Drinking Game: take a drink when any of us changes instruments. (Please play responsibly!)

Our latest album, Every Trick in the Book, is available here on our site! Twenty-six instruments, ten voices, and sixteen tracks including traditional, covers, and originals. Visit our shop* for more information, and the CD will also be available at all of our live shows.
Check back here or follow us on Facebook for more announcements.
*When you purchase directly from independent artists rather than through conventional music sites, 100% of the funds go to the band (for us, it goes to our our instruments, equipment, CD production costs, etc.). Conventional music sites only give the artists between <1% and 5%, and it's usually closer to the former. We appreciate your support!
