Seattle Folklore Society presents John Whelan in Concert
$20 / $10
The Seattle Folklore Society is pleased to present, in the opening concert of the season, several times all-Ireland champion accordionist John Whelan. This will be John's 50th year of performing, and his control and mastery of his instrument on the traditional jigs, reels, airs, and more will be even more evident as will his obvious joy for the music! He has performed at major Irish Festivals and house concerts alike, and played with the top musicians in the Celtic genre. John has also been in demand as a composer, and his compositions have been used in film and tv, such as Sex and The City and Ang Lee's Ride With The Devil, in which he also acted. This will be a concert not to be missed!
Tickets: $20 ($18 SFS/PNA member, student, senior 65+; $10 youth ages 6-17)
