Join us as we celebrate Manchester and New Hampshire’s Irish Heritage with a one-day festival filled with Irish music by local and international artists.Screaming Orphans – A Pop and folk band from Bundoran, County Donegal, Ireland. The band consists of the four Diver sisters – Joan, Angela, Gràinne and Marie Thérèse. The group combines their own original melodic old-school pop songs with a modern take on traditional Irish music and song, inherited from their family roots.
The Spain Brothers – Liam and Mickey Spain are second generation singer / songwriters from the mill town of Manchester, NH. They grew up in a household steeped in folk music and musicians. Their father, Mike Spain, was a well-known folk singer performing Irish and American Folk songs throughout the New England area. Mike, not only inspired the boys to perform, but he introduced them to the work of a myriad of artists, and educated them on the folk song tradition and its importance in society.
The Jordan Tirrell-Wysocki Trio – Putting a fresh spin on traditional Celtic music, the Jordan TW Trio delivers a dynamic show full of lively fiddle tunes, haunting airs and classic sing-alongs. For over a decade, fiddler/singer Jordan Tirrell-Wysocki, guitarist Matthew Jensen and bassist Chris Noyes have blended the music of Ireland and Scotland with their own original material, drawing on multiple genres to produce a unique sound that has been described as “brisk, lean and exceedingly lovely” by Boston Irish Reporter.
Rory Makem – A seasoned performer with over 35 years on the road, Rory has toured extensively with The Makem Brothers, and the Makem and Spain Brothers and for 17 years played guitar with his father, Tommy Makem. He has played sold-out venues, festivals, and theaters throughout the United States, Canada, England, Scotland and Ireland. At his best on stage, Rory captivates his audiences with charisma, passion for the songs, poetry, history, humor and skilled musicianship.
