In case you didn’t get your fill of corned beef and cabbage, green beverages and Celtic spirit a few weeks ago, we’ve got just the remedy. This Saturday, March 31^st, 7:30pm, Celtic Crossroads will showcase their masterful fusion of traditional Irish music, bluegrass, gypsy and jazz.

Critically acclaimed as “the most exhilarating and authentic show to come from Ireland in decades,” Celtic Crossroads is a true display of youthful energy and dazzling musicianship. With a name originating from a time in Ireland when neighboring communities met at village crossroads to socialize, the group has retained their focus on keeping traditional Irish music alive. However, this isn’t your great-grandparent’s jam session. The performer’s youthful age and raw talent has transitioned the show into the 21^st century, with high-kicking Irish dancers and pulsating rhythms.

Incorporating seven world-class musicians playing over twenty instruments on stage, Celtic Crossroads is an inspiring spectacle. The show features some of Ireland’s most notable and beloved instruments, like the haunting uilleann pipes, whistles, low whistles, the Irish harp, fiddle, banjo, mandolin, accordion, mandola, flute, and of course intriguing guitar riffs. Combine that with heart pounding rhythms, and audience members inevitably find themselves stomping along.

We’ve all seen big, flashy productions of heavily costumed and over produced “Irish” shows. But that’s what sets Celtic Crossroads apart, and has won them the adoration of audiences around the world. With a unique approach to Irish music performance, the musicians of Celtic Crossroads rely solely on their proficiency in numerous instruments and song to captivate the audience. Sure, it’s a high energy performance, but what truly sets it apart is a feeling of authenticity and talent that is not often matched.

This weekend, gather the whole family and enjoy a genuine flavor of The Emerald Isle that will bring a new appreciation of the green culture. It’s a performance of unbridled talent, joyful melody and an innovative take on traditional Irish song and dance that will leave you with an extra jig in your step.
