The Carpenter Academy of Irish Dance was founded under the direction of Amanda Carpenter, TCRG in 2018. The academy specializes in both performance and competitive Irish dancing, with classes available for dancers ages 4 to adult. The Carpenter Academy dancers range from the beginner to the champion level and compete locally, nationally, and internationally.
OUR MISSION: We believe in fostering a love and appreciation for Irish dance by maintaining the integrity of the sport through fun and athletic training in a creative and nurturing environment.

Birthed in the Normaltown neighborhood of Athens, GA, plays traditional Irish tunes and songs. Known for other musical projects since the early 2000s, Amanda Kapasouz (Tin Cup Prophette) and Rob McMaken (Hog-Eyed Man) will be leading this version of the Kids on the Mountain for the Normaltown Music Festival. Expect to hear lots of irish fiddle accompanied by bouzouki, mandolin, tenor banjo, and guitar for a genuine pub vibe to kick off the festivities.
is an Irish folk-rock project featuring the lilting voice of Claire Campbell (Hope For Agoldensummer) and the seasoned growl of Nathan Peters (Beat Up). They are backed by a band of dear friends on mandolin, accordion, banjo, drums, bass and penny whistle. You’ll be treated to a set of beloved Irish tunes featuring plenty of Celtic classics, foot-stomping jigs, sweet ballads, and even a few rockers. The band provides lyric sheets for the audience so you can sing along and join in the fun! Expect tunes by The Clancy Brothers, The Pogues, The Dubliners, and many more. There will be songs of love, songs of war, and a few comical numbers as well. Of course, they promise not to pull a Fawney Rig* on you, lad!
