Band Announcement...Tomorrow

Today being Thursday means tomorrow is Friday and tomorrow being Friday means that it's time for our sometimes-on-Friday band announcement.

It's mean to tease you like that, I know. So here's a hint to ponder as you try to guess who's coming to the party. This is a band we had hoped to bring you in the rainout year of 2003. Except, you know, it rained. It's a band we've never presented at Irish Fest. It's an award winning band with more than a dozen CDs spanning a 20 year career. It's...

...tomorrow's band announcement. Any guesses?

Addendum:
Dave Shaughnessy thinks I'm being too hard on you. Okay, ya big babies, here's another hint: the band we're announcing hails from Canada. Happy Dave?

Let's see... The Chieftans weren't booked, too expensive... The Elders we've already heard a bazillion times... Must be Solas!?

Nope. Remember, they've never played Irish Fest before. Solas was here last year.

Are you sure they were book for the rain year?

Danny Regan said...

Read carefully: I said they were a band we'd hoped to bring you that year.

Altan?

Danny Regan said...

Nope. Great band, though.

Would it be The Barra MacNeils?

(I know it's not them but I just never miss an opportunity to tell you people that they are the one band I want to see at KCIF more than any other..........)
