Ministry
Signified by the meaning behind their name, the members of Cele De, are truly "Servants of God." Using a blend of instrumental and lyrical music, their distinct and refined sound has allowed them to bring God's light to Celtic festivals, pubs, and bars, as well as typical Christian venues such as churches and coffeehouses. Making use of their energetic, youthful, and intricate sound, God has used Cele De to minister to both young and old.

Bio
For this hard-hitting group out of Northern California, unique is an understatement. While listening to this passionate Celtic rock quintet, don't be shocked when their songs cross time signatures, genres, or musical boundaries.


Accomplishments
For being 18, 19, and 20 years of age, Cele De sure has accomplished a lot. In March of 2004, they beat out over 110 bands to win America’s Christian Music Showcase. Since then, they have shared the stage with notable Christian acts including SonicFlood, Sanctus Real, George Huff, Darrell Evans, Monk and Neagle, and more. They have also found acclaim in the Celtic/Folk arena, playing with big names like Tempest, the Wicked Tinkers, and Brian McNeil. Interviewed live on the air by Greg Kihn (of the Greg Kihn Band), they have received airplay on stations including San Jose’s KEZR, KRTY, and KUFX. Recently, they were honored to open for the reigning national banjo champion Brian Anderson. But the list will not stop there. During the next four months alone, they will be opening for Joy Williams, headlining their own show at Spirit West Coast, playing at Cornerstone Music Festival (the largest Christian event in the US), as well as performing at Don Quixote’s International Music Hall.
