Time:

Event Description:
Colcannon returns to the Midwest Theater with their authentic, joyous Irish music on St. Patrick’s Day. Over the years Colcannon has developed a distinctive, inventive, and contemporary musical style while still keeping in firm touch with the heart and essence of traditional Irish music. Colcannon’s concerts are renowned for their energy, for singer/front man Mick Bolger’s irrepressible sense of humor and sly wit, and, of course, for the music; music that expresses flights of joy, deep sorrows, and an unquenchable zest for life.
The band formed in 1984 in Boulder Colorado, USA, and their reputation has grown steadily over the years with the release of eight CDs on the Oxford Road Records label. The band’s recent CD ‘The Pooka and the Fiddler’ received a Parent’s Choice Award for its artful interweaving or music and storytelling. The Emmy®-award winning PBS special, “Colcannon in Concert,” filmed at the Denver Center for the Performing Arts has aired nationwide.
An Irish dinner will precede the show at the Emporium featuring Cornbeef & Colcannon (The Bands Namesake) along with a dessert. Call the Emporium for information 632-6222
A Cash bar will be available at the show.
