Released March 2025.
Willowgreen celebrates the release of their legacy album, “Sheila’s Brush”. Sheila’s Brush is a Newfoundland term for the last storm of the winter season, on the heels of St. Patrick’s Day. “Sheila” herself is a figure steeped in Irish folklore.

Their signature vocal style combined with instrumentation including fiddle, harp, hammered dulcimer, bodhrán, guitars, octave fiddle, button accordion, whistles and mandolins appeals to audiences of all ages.
