==================

BNTB (formally Blame Not the Bard) is a dynamic Celtic folk band that has been engaging audiences with their fiery instrumentals, captivating stories, and heartfelt song since 2015. Whether performing traditional Celtic songs and tunes with a refreshing and modern twist, or breathing life into their own original compositions, BNTB is connecting their songs and stories with audiences around the world.

Throughout the years, BNTB has played hundreds of shows, lighting up stages in nine states with venues ranging from intimate listening rooms to major festivals including the Kansas City Irish Fest and main stage appearances at the Iowa Irish Fest. Boasting multiple media appearances, BNTB has been featured in Little Village Magazine, an artist feature on KDEC 100.5 and numerous appearances on the award-winning Irish and Celtic Music Podcast, Ceolplay with Colum King, and a full-length Greetings from Iowa PBS special.

==================

The potluck is optional, but is a great chance to connect others in the audience and maybe even share a meal with the artist. It also helps ensure the artist isn't having to have a meal from a gas station. We'll provide the plates, bowls, silverware, napkins, and, if you need it, serving spoons. Feel free to bring anything you'd like--an entrée, appetizer, dessert, or drink to share. Bring something you will enjoy eating, because if you enjoy it it is likely others will as well.
