Peia Luzzi is an American born song collector, writer and multi-instrumentalist based in the mountains of Appalachia. Like water from a deep well, she draws inspiration from her ancestral roots of Irish and Old World European folk music. Peia’s voice dances nimbly from Child Ballads and 17th C. Gaelic laments, to Waulking Songs, and Bulgarian mountain calls. She has traveled & studied extensively over the past 10 years to reconnect with her own ancestral song tradition. Uncovering melodies wrinkled & wise with time, while taking care to honor their language and stories, Peia brings a piece of herself to each song she carries.

With live performances often described as timeless and transcendent Peia’s music transports audiences through hypnotic rhythms & soaring vocals. The trio comes together from The United Stated Canada & Israel with Liron Meyuhas on Percussion and Peter Klaassen on Double bass.
Weaving together rich groves, driving percussion, and expansive ethereal vocals, along with layers of charangon and harmonium, they create a lush organic soundscape. Their mesmerizing performances offer authentic re-imaginings of traditional folk treasures, as well as a collection of Peia’s original songs.
