The Island St. Patrick’s Day Celebration
The Island St. Patrick’s Day Celebration. The Island will host a free St. Patricks Day celebration with a jam session with Tuatha Dea. Tuatha Dea is a progressive Americana band with a rock edge known for pushing the boundaries of modern roots music. The Island fountains will be dyed green and feature special, Celtic-inspired music selections the entire day!
“We’re so happy to be once again hosting our annual St. Patrick’s Day celebration here at The Island,” said David Wear, Vice President of Operations for The Island. “This event is always action-packed, and we’re excited to have Tuatha Dea here to add to the day’s festivities and keep our visitors dancing and having fun!”
Tuatha Dea will be performing two sets beginning at 1:00 p.m. and again at 4:00 p.m. Combining primal rhythms, melodic and ethereal ballads, and screaming guitar riffs with an Appalachian/Celtic vibe. This dynamic group, born of a family drum circle, delivers an authentic tribal and clannish feel that not only draws the audience into the music, but into the moment. Always embracing their Celtic heritage, Tuatha Dea meshes the traditional music of Scotland and Ireland with their own bold blend of rock, mountain drumming, and Appalachian blues to create a unique sound with universal appeal.
