An evening of Irish traditional music featuring Copley Street will be presented on Saturday, Oct. 11, at 7 p.m.
Nathan Gourley, Joey Abarta, and Owen Marshall bring together fiddle, uilleann pipes, bouzouki, and guitar in a beautifully expressive and masterfully crafted sound, say event organizers. Their latest album, “Copley Street 2,” builds on the success of their acclaimed 2016 release, weaving together intricate tunes with deep musical chemistry and a warm, rich tonal blend.
Gourley, known for his work with Ship in the Clouds, and Brightly and Darkly, is a highly-regarded fiddler with a distinct and lyrical style. Abarta, an All-Ireland champion piper, has toured with The Green Fields of America and performed for Ireland President Michael D. Higgins, carving out a reputation as one of the finest pipers of his generation, according to a news release. Marshall, has toured and recorded with Seamus Egan, Liz Carrol, and Jenna Moynihan, and has emerged as one of the foremost accompanists of traditional music.
Admission is $25 advance, $28 day of show.
