Linden Place Mansion to Celebrate Irish Heritage Month with a Celtic Concert featuring Turas

 

The performance will feature Celtic and Irish music as well as contemporary tunes, held fireside in the Linden Place Ballroom on Friday March 25, 2022.

 

Turas means “journey” in Gaelic and Linden Place will be taking a journey across the musical seas with this Rhode Island band of musicians.  Turas is a Rhode Island band that features both traditional Irish and Celtic music as well as modern compositions. 

 

 

In celebration of Irish Heritage Month, Turas will perform fireside in the Linden Place ballroom on Fri, March 25th at 7pm. This performance, originally scheduled for March 11th, was rescheduled.

 

 

Turas is made up of four singers and many instruments, including Bob Drouin, cofounder of the legendary Celtic band, Pendragon, on fiddle, flute and guitar, Josh Kane on flute and whistle, Rob McConeghy on piano and guitar and Dean Robinson on bodhran, bones, djembe and whistle.  Together they will bring the sounds of Ireland to Bristol.
