Molly's Revenge, starring David Brewer, John Weed and Stu
Mason with vocalist Amelia Hogan's lilting grace and a subtle power, and the
award winning Rosemary Turco Irish Dancers will present an evening of music,
song and dance associated with the festive season. The performance will include
Christmas songs both old and new, all played with a Celtic twist, and something
new for our regulars.
Molly's Revenge, whose lineup includes bagpipes, fiddle,
whistle, guitar, mandola, and bodhran, have toured the world with their unique
and infectious on-stage enthusiasm. Their arrangements of traditional jigs and
reels bring these dance tunes up to date with a driving, hard-edged accent that
always leaves audiences shouting for more.
Guest vocalist Amelia Hogan brings a voice of lilting
grace and a subtle power and to balance the evocative storytelling of Amelia's
songs, the Rosemary Turco Irish Dancers bring a percussive, joyful, and
colorful exuberance to the stage.
California-based Molly's Revenge has toured since 2000 as
a four and five-piece acoustic band, releasing eleven CDs along the way, and in
2014, Molly's Revenge and Christa Burch recorded a collection of Celtic
Christmas and winter-themed music at a remote windswept retreat in the redwoods
of the Mendocino coast. This beautiful Winterdance holiday album will be
available at the shows.
Cost: $23
