Meet Pay the Reckoning
Ken Doyle
A native of Chattanooga, Ken earned a degree in instrumental music performance from Samford University in Birmingham, AL. Ken has been playing Irish Traditional Music on the wooden flute, tin whistle, and bodhran since 2004; however his love and fascination with Irish Traditional Music began many years earlier. Ken's woodwinds showcase technical precision and beautiful musicality alongside classic vocals reminiscent of a glass of whiskey beside a warm peat fire.

Sarah Hunt-Inostroza
Chattanooga-born and raised, Sarah has played violin for over 25 years. A classically trained Suzuki kid, she got hooked on Irish music after watching her parents' VHS of River Dance as a teenager and has been playing it ever since. Besides her clear and ornamented fiddling, her hauntingly beautiful voice breathes life into old ballads.

Mark Pitner
bouzouki, guitar, vocals
Also a native of Chattanooga, Mark began playing the guitar at age 12, and then studied at the Cadek Conservatory of Music at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. Mark has loved Celtic music all of his life and began playing Irish Traditional Music in 2006. Mark's backing is the heartbeat of the band, lending a jaunty air to tunes, and his powerful vocals evoke the days of sailing ships and tales told under the stars.
