Drawing from the rich musical landscape of early
America, Traveler's Dream creates music that is rich in
tradition but driven by innovation and creativity. With
powerful voices and a wide variety of traditional and modern
instruments, Michael Lewis and Denise Wilson captivate listeners
with spirited songs from the British Isles and French Canada,
hard-driving Irish jigs and reels, sea shanties, and traditional
American songs. Nestled alongside this vibrant canon of
music are original songs and tunes which contribute to the
signature sound that is distinctly Traveler's Dream. “Traveler's Dream delivers a musical experience that is rich in tradition, colorful in its diversity, and delightful for its spontaneous humor and fun!" The band's broad appeal owes much to the duo's impressive skills as multi-instrumentalists, the beauty of their close vocal harmonies, and their dynamic ability to engage audiences with their warmth, humor, and wit. Another quality that sets Traveler's Dream apart from other bands is the songwriting talents of both Lewis and Wilson and their creative ability to seamlessly weave together their original and traditional material. A rich and diverse tapestry of sound Listeners of all ages are fascinated by the many different combinations of voices and instruments which create a tapestry of textured melodies and shifting moods. The clear and bright tones of the concertina, tin whistle, and mandolin create a fresh counterpoint to the deep and haunting sound of the Irish flute. Driving rhythms on the guitar and bouzouki along with the mesmerizing pulse of the Quebecois-style "dancing" feet create a boundless energy that bond performer and audience together.
