If you love to kick up your heels to a jig, sing a lilting song, or rosin up your bow for a frolic on the fiddle, you'll love being a member of Craobh Dugan. We have two monthly sessions in Utica and Oriskany. Everyone who plays a musical instrument usually associated with Irish music is encouraged to play with us. Click the button above to find out all the details.
|
Even if you don't play an instrument yourself, you'll have plenty of opportunities to sit back and enjoy traditional Irish music as authentic as anything you could hear in Ireland. Check out our calendar to see where we're playing. You'll find us at pubs, libraries, festivals, and nursing homes throughout the Mohawk Valley from Utica to Rome and beyond.

Do you think we'd be a perfect fit for your meeting, event, pub, nursing home, or village concert series? Contact us to find out when we're available to perform for you and your clan.
