Nikki Custy was born and raised in the Akron area of Ohio, just southeast of Cleveland. Through travel and studies, Nikki found herself at UCG (Galway) where she met her future husband Patrick. We're not sure if her studies suffered at all, but Nikki found herself at a great number of sessions during her academic tenure in Ireland. Regardless of her grades she picked up a thing or two from all the great players she encountered along the way.Patrick Custy was born and raised in Dysart, a small town in northwest Clare Ireland. Surrounded by the steep tradition of Clare music Patrick could not help but become part of the famous tradition. Maybe it was his Uncle Frank Custy the local school master who "strongly encouraged" each student to pick up an instrument. I guess we could say the rest is history, listening to Pat on the Flute conjures the mysticism of an ancient Ireland not seen but only felt in your soul.
