Imagine yourself in Ireland at the end of the day. The weather is rough and everyone is inside in the kitchen while the rain beats on the windows. The fire gets stoked with peat, the kettle boils and mugs of hot sweet tea are passed around. Someone takes a fiddle off the wall and launches into a reel, joined soon by flute and guitar. The floor is cleared for dancing, sparks fly from the flagstones, songs are sung, jokes and stories drift through the air and you are lost in the moment. Welcome to GLEN ROAD. Featuring the angelic voice of Connie Dover, the musicians of GLEN ROAD are among an elite group of professional performers who are equally at home in the concert hall or in the classroom. With music and stories they create the magic of the emerald isle when and wherever they perform. Their show is a collective blend that brings Ireland and all its musical traditions with music lovingly played and sung by those with a true connection to it to the eyes and ears of audiences everywhere. A GLEN ROAD concert is a melodic journey of mind and senses that requires no passport. Their holiday show is called AN IRISH CHRISTMAS and is filled with songs of the holiday and tradition, heartfelt ballads of hard times and struggle interspersed with intimate stories of the emigrant experience and Christmas at home - all delivered with their notoriously irrepressible Irish wit and easy charm.
