IRELAND'S FINEST BALLEDEER comes to Shepherdstown, WV
Sunday, April 15th at 7pm, Danny Doyle, Ireland's finest balladeer, will perform at the Blue Moon Cafe's "Blue Moon Sundays" Concert Series in Shepherdstown, WV.
In an impressive concert career spanning almost four decades, Danny Doyle has been bringing the ballads, history and stories of Ireland to audiences around the world. He has a way of conjuring up the Irish island with songs and vivid tales. Somehow, after you've heard this quintessential Irishman, you can nearly taste the salt aroma of a West Clare gale and almost feel the mist falling on Dublin's Ha'penny Bridge. If Danny (in the words of the 19th century Belfast poet, Samuel Ferguson) is a folksinger who aspires "To link his present with his country's past and live anew in knowledge of his sires," then his songs and deep affection for Ireland's dramatic history offer profound evidence that he indeed sings with the spirit of his homeland flowing through his veins.
Admission for this show is $10/person at the door. Doors open at 5:30pm, dinner is served from 6:00 to 7:00pm, and music starts at 7:00pm. At each show the Blue Moon offers a special menu, by Chef Ezra Newkirk, designed specifically for Blue Moon Sundays. Newkirk serves up "mouth watering" appetizers, entrees, and desserts in hearty portions. Beer and wine are also available for purchase. So, visit the Blue Moon on Sunday evenings. Hear some great music, eat some delicious food, and make some new friends!
