Andy Irvine
Don Quixote's International Music Hall Felton, CA
Celebrating the recent release of his critically acclaimed CD, 'Abocurragh,' and hailed in Dublin's 'Hot Press' as 'Woody Guthrie's representative on earth' and in the 'Irish Press' as 'a tradition unto himself,' Andy Irvine has maintained a personal integrity and highly individual performing skills throughout a carrer that has spanned almost half a century. From the groundbreaking group Sweeney's Men in the mid-60's and the enormous success of Planxty in the 70's to the Irish supergroup Patrick Street since the 80's and currently with the world music powerhouse Mozaik, Andy has been an icon for traditional music. In solo concert, he plies his trade like an archtypal troubadour reflecting his traveling lifestyle and life-long influence, Woody Guthire, with a repretoire encompassing Irish traditional songs, dexterous Balkan dance tunes and a compelling canon of original material. As the 'Sydney Morning Herald' observed, 'What makes an evening with Irvine so special is that every note he picks and every line he sings comes straight from the heart. Everything he touches is performed with honesty and conviction and his playing is never less than breathtaking. By any measure Irvine is one of the towering talents on the international folk scene.
