“A tradition in himself.” Andy Irvine, one of the most iconic voices in Irish music, comes to Detroit for a rare solo concert on October 8. For over 55 years, Irvine has been a driving force in Irish folk, from his early days with Sweeney’s Men to legendary groups like Planxty, Patrick Street, Mozaik, LAPD, and Usher’s Island. As a solo performer, Andy embodies the spirit of the wandering troubadour, delivering Irish ballads, Balkan rhythms, and original songs with profound depth and artistry. His collaborations with Paul Brady, Dónal Lunny, and many others have shaped generations of traditional musicians. Hailed by The Irish Times as “often copied, never equalled,” Irvine’s performances are rich with history, passion, and musical mastery. Whether you're a longtime fan or discovering his music for the first time, this is a night not to be missed.
