  • St. Patrick's Day Irish Celebration & Day of Irish Dance
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MEDIA CONTACT: March 1, 2021 Krissy Schoenfelder 651.292.3276 | [email protected] Year two of virtual Day of Irish Dance and St. Patrick’s Day Celebration Virtual Irish fun for the whole family SAINT PAUL, Minn. (March 1, 2021)– The Irish Music and Dance Association has been offering a family friendly St. Patrick’s Day celebration at Landmark Center every year since the first concert in 1983! This year’s virtual celebrations bring back many performers who delight audiences each year at historic Landmark Center in St. Paul. In other years, Landmark Center is filled with guests enjoying Irish music, Irish dance, a bit of Irish theatre and special children’s entertainment. This year, the Irish Music and Dance Association and Landmark Center will welcome everyone virtually – on the IMDA website, the new IMDA YouTube Channel, IMDA’s Facebook Page, and on Landmark Center’s website and Facebook pages – for Day of Irish Dance, March 14, and the St. Patrick’s Day Irish Celebration, March 17. March 14 - The Sundays at Landmark event, “Day of Irish Dance,” will have two components. The first, all things Irish dance—history, costumes, music, lessons, etc—on Landmark Center’s website (www.landmarkcenter.org/irish-celebrations). The second component is the only in-person element of either day, a concert with Todd Menton from Landmark Center’s Market Street porch. The outdoor concert will still observe COVID-19 protocols (masks, social distancing), and will be live-streamed for those unable to attend in person. Visit the Landmark Center or IMDA website in the event of inclement weather for concert location info.

    FolkWorld #51: CD Reviews 28/08/13 11:31 FolkWorld #51 07/2013 CD & DVD Reviews The Irish Rovers "Drunken Sailor" Rover Records; 2012 When a band called the Irish Rovers releases an album with the bawdy classic “Drunken Sailor” as the title www.irishroversmusic.com cut, I would guess that you would not a review to tell you what to expect. And certainly if you know anything about the Irish Rovers during the last 50-odd years they have been together, you should know what you will get here. And with founding member George Millar leading the way with his cousin Ian and some fine traditional players, there is classic Irish style and some good energy present in these songs… all suitable for a late night in the pub. © David Hintz Current Swell "Long Time Ago" Nettwerk, 2013 This is modern folk-rock that has a little bit of that Felice Brothers meets Elliott Brood style here at work. I particular like the way the www.currentswell.com electric guitars kick in during “Honest Man” which offsets the more folky songs. There is a rhythm and blues feeling in the vocal work, which along with the percussion brings a little swing into the arrangements. There may be even too much R&B for some people, but the music is comfortable and engaging throughout the album. There is also a nice sting in the guitar work as well, even when they are not rocking out. The songs consistently connect and show enough creative spark allowing the band to resonate with a large audience.
