Andy Irvine With Quilty (Matinee Show)

Mozaik, LAPD and Usher's Island, Andy has been a world music pioneer and an icon for traditional music and musicians. As a soloist, Andy fills the role of the archetypal troubadour with a show and a travelling lifestyle that reflect his lifelong influence, Woody Guthrie. To quote The Irish Times, "Often copied, never equalled", his repertoire consists of Irish traditional songs, dexterous Balkan dances and a compelling canon of his own self-penned songs. . . Quilty was formed in 1993 and is considered to be one of the foremost bands of the Irish folkmusic scene in Scandinavia. Over the last three decades they have performed a huge number of concerts in Sweden, Germany and Norway and created a wide range of collaboration projects with choirs and symphony orchestras.
