Skip Friel: Home

Virginia Beach-based Skip Friel’s spirited performances capture the art and joy of music. His award winning 2007 album, Twilight Red Sky, features finely-crafted originals that are uplifting, inspiring, and go straight to the heart. In December 2008 Skip teamed with brother Randy Friel to release the album, Evergreen Christmas. Song Evergreens has since been awarded 2008 Best International Folk Song by Toronto Exclusive Magazine.

Performing solo or with his band, the Resonators, Skip is at home in large, festival venues and on intimate, acoustic-friendly stages.
