Society Hall, the performance space, concert hall and community gathering place at 400 Ross Ave. in Alamosa, is thrilled to welcome back Irish guitarist and singer-songwriter Patsy O'Brien in concert Friday February 6th, at 7:00 PM. Doors will open at 6:00 pm. Tickets are $20 and are available at the link below or at the Green Spot at 711 State Ave. in Alamosa. The concert will also stream live on the Society Hall Facebook page.
Patsy entranced the Society Hall crowd when he was here a couple of years ago with his phenomenal guitar wizardry and has been compared to an Irish Tommy Emmanuel. He has bridged the gap between traditional Celtic/Irish styles of guitar and more modern jazz, rock, and roots/Americana influences. He is also an accomplished singer-songwriter and vocalist. Plus, he's funny and engaging in concert, with that twinkle in his eye that reaches back to the Emerald Isle.
As well as supplying the driving guitar rhythms on Celtic/World Music diva Eileen Ivers' last European tour, and frequently treading the boards and collaborating with many giants of the Celtic/World music scene (Paddy Keenan. Cathie Ryan among them), Patsy's songwriting reflects a strong interest in roots Americana as well as Jazz influences.
With critically-acclaimed solo albums under his belt along with numerous live and studio collaborations, it's no surprise that Patsy's songwriting ability and guitar prowess are in demand (he hosts guitar workshops all over the country), and NPR saw fit to feature one of his song arrangements on the prestigious All Songs Considered.
Veteran Irish music critic Paul Dromey declares Patsy "Ireland's best-kept musical secret.", after attending his opening performance for Kinky Friedman some years back. Hard to believe that with all that behind him, Patsy's star is still rising!
The Society Hall board, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing a place for community celebrations of all kinds, invites everyone to join them in the hall, at 400 Ross Avenue in Alamosa for some rousing and moving Irish-influenced but wide ranging guitar and songs from Patsy O'Brien, Friday February 6th at 7:00 PM! Society Hall – where community celebrates!
