Solas with Songs and Stories

About this event

Solas is lighting up stages across the globe as they celebrate three decades of pushing boundaries and honoring traditions in Irish music! Hailed by The Boston Globe as “the finest Celtic ensemble this country has ever produced,” and by The Wall Street Journal as “an Irish traditional band bearing all the marks of greatness,” Solas has captivated audiences since their formation in New York City in 1995.

With twelve critically acclaimed albums and a reputation for dynamic live performances, Solas has set new standards for musicianship, repertoire, and intensity. Their unique blend of respect for Irish musical traditions with adventurous melodies and instrumentation has made them a cornerstone of the genre.

On November 11th at McKenzie River Music, Solas describes and teaches song construction while performing an array of their repertoire unplugged in an intimate setting. founding Solas members Seamus Egan, Winifred Horan, and John Williams will be joined on stage by Alan Murray and renowned multi-instrumentalist/vocal polyglot, Moira Smiley! Audiences can look forward to an unforgettable musical journey as the band showcases their signature sound while continuing to innovate and inspire.
