St. Patrick's Day Celebration with Islay Mist Ceilidh in Colebrook by GNWCA

Celebrate St.Patrick's Day At The Colebrook Country Club With Islay Mist Ceilidh

Get ready to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day in grand style at the Colebrook Country Club beginning at 7 p.m. on Friday, March 17, as the region’s largest Celtic ensemble gathers to celebrate the music of the Emerald Isle.
That’s the night that Islay Mist Ceilidh comes to town bringing in its music bag a host of Irish tunes–and then some–with a successive blast of jigs, reels, airs and some familiar tunes to sing along with.
The Great North Woods Committee for the Arts will be hosting this lively St. Patrick’s Day gathering Islay Mist Ceilidh is a group of musicians from all over northern New Hampshire who first started out playing Celtic music for fun. That fun has grown to include numerous gigs at various venues and events; the band plays several times a year at the Appalachian Mountain Club’s Highland Center Inn in Crawford Notch, the Lancaster Fair and for the past two years has been among the headliners at the annual First Night New Year’s Eve celebration in St. Johnsbury, Vt.
Islay Mist Ceilidh includes fiddlers, guitarists, twin bodhrans, flutes, penny whistle and cellos. The group recently recorded its first CD, which will be available for purchase at the show.
Come on and join the fun and don’t forget to wear your green—and sing along to some old Irish favorites, including “When Irish Eyes are Smiling,” “Danny Boy” and “Irish Lullaby.” Whether you’re of Irish heritage or just Irish for the day, you’ll have a great time–and that’s no blarney.
