Eddi Reader & Alan Kelly Gang Concert

This listing appears to be for a concert performance rather than an artist opportunity. The event features Eddi Reader, known for her work with Fairground Attraction and her interpretations of Robert Burns' poems, collaborating with the Alan Kelly Gang, led by Ireland's innovative piano accordion maestro Alan Kelly. The performance is scheduled for Friday, September 12, 2025, at 8:00pm at The Venue Ratoath. The collaboration celebrates 15 years of friendship and musical partnership, featuring Reader's powerful vocals combined with Kelly's contemporary-infused traditional Irish music. The group includes Steph Geremia on flute and vocals, Jim Higgins on Bodhran and percussion, Mark Kelly on guitar, and John Douglas on guitar and vocals. Their performances are known for distinctive harmonies, imaginative arrangements, and rich storytelling that blends traditional Celtic music with contemporary elements. This tour kicks off in London on September 5th before moving to venues across Ireland. The collaboration has previously toured internationally with sell-out shows in Scotland, Ireland, England, Australia, Canada and Europe, earning critical acclaim for their innovative yet respectful approach to traditional music.
