Eileen Ivers: "You will remember this concert." Grammy-winning, Emmy-nominated Eileen Ivers and her energetic, passionate multi-instrumentals quintet deliver an evening of entertaining, intricate and joyful mix of American roots music forged from Celtic roots. Eileen is hailed as one of the great innovators and pioneers in the Celtic and World music genres. Eileen will change the way you think of the violin.
“It is her ability to make a show personal to each audience member that separates her from others, that and her immense talent. She brings life to her music like no other and single-handedly makes the violin cool. She has surrounded herself with an amazingly talented band …together, their camaraderie extends to their seamless efforts on stage to deliver a musical performance of the highest caliber.” Kathy Stockbridge, Journalist
