August 25, 2016 - Solas Concert

                7:30pm - Nottoway Park, 9537 Courthouse Road, Vienna

                Quintessential Irish-American band recording and touring in the U.S. today.
                Fifteen years ago, in a manner befitting its name (Gaelic for "light”),
                Solas burst onto the Irish music scene and

                instantly became a beacon – an incandescent ensemble that found
                contemporary relevance in timeless traditions without ever stooping to clichés.

                FREE, 703-324-SHOW (7469) or

August 26, 2016 - Scythian Concert

                7:30pm - Grist Mill Park, 4710 Mt. Vernon Memorial Highway, Alexandria

                Although the need for petrol got this Irish band started, it is the great times

                and appreciative listeners that have kept them going.

                They lightheartedly claim inspiration from the Scythians,

                a bunch of pre-Mesopotamian barbarians who didn't use forks or phonics.
