About this Event

Experience an unforgettable evening with John Doyle live in Chicago at Chief O'Neill's Pub. Renowned for his masterful guitar work and soulful vocals, Doyle brings traditional Irish music to life with energy, precision, and heart. Set in the warm, intimate atmosphere of this beloved pub, the concert promises a close-up encounter with one of folk music’s finest performers.

Originally from Dublin, John Doyle is an exquisite singer and songwriter; producer; multi-Grammy nominee; and an extraordinary master of the Irish guitar whose singular percussive style has influenced a generation of players.

A founding member of the acclaimed group Solas, John’s guitar sound took the traditional music world by storm and has likely forever influenced the role of guitar in Irish music. John regularly performs solo, in duos, groups and has been the choice guitarist for the likes of Joan Baez, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Linda Thompson, Jerry Douglas, The Alt, Usher's Island, Liz Carroll, Eileen Ivers, Tim O’Brien, Michael McGoldrick and John McCusker, Alison Brown, Mick Moloney, Kate Rusby and a host of other world class performers in America and abroad.
"Doyle on guitar has risen to a level occupied by him alone. No one in Irish traditional music is a better guitarist than him right now."
---Earle Hitchener, The Wall Street Journal
