Traditional Singers Club concerts follow a format designed to showcase featured artists while also promoting local participation in traditional singing. Thus, December's event will include performances by "resident" club singers as well as an impromptu song or two from selected "floor" singers.
We support and encourage involvement and excellence in Irish and related singing
traditions. We do this in part by providing a regular singing session in the Twin Cities
for those who are interested in learning, performing, and sharing knowledge on
unaccompanied traditional songs, which was seen as an unmet need when the club was
founded.
We also host concerts and workshops by respected traditional singers. Past guests include Len Graham, Aine Meenaghan, and Dáithí Sproule.
