Andy Irvine

Musician, singer and songwriter, Andy has maintained his highly individual performing skills throughout his over 55-year career. From Sweeney's Men in the mid 60s, to the enormous success of Planxty in the 70s, his duo with Paul Brady in the later 70s and then from Patrick Street to Mozaik, LAPD and Usher’s Island, Andy has been a world music pioneer and an icon for traditional music and musicians.
Dirty Cello Duo at the Redwood Gallery
"Dirty Cello’s music is all over the map: funky, carnival, romantic, sexy, tangled, electric, fiercely rhythmic, and textured, and only occasionally
classical." Lou Fancher, Oakland Magazine.
The Rosa Lees
The Rosa Lees are an all-female bluegrass band with inventive instrumentation, dynamic arrangements, and tight 4-part harmonies that draw on elements from traditional bluegrass to old-time and classic country through a songwriter's pen.
