Danu – Jorgensen Center | March 8 | 7:30 pm

With St. Patrick’s Day just around the corner, we thought we’d set the mood by taking a musical journey to Ireland. Called “a spirit raising concoction” by The Irish Times, Danu is one of the leading traditional Irish ensembles of today. Their standing-room-only concerts throughout Ireland feature high-energy performances and a glorious mix of ancient Irish music and new repertoire.

“Danu stirs the blood and lifts the heart.” – Irish Music Magazine

And speaking of stirring the blood and setting the mood… there’ll be Irish coffee and green beer aplenty at the bar.

$15 – $35
