[NEohioPAL] World Tour of Music: The General Guinness Band, Medina, October 28, 8pm

[Thomas Sigel]

Ohio Regional Music Arts and Cultural Outreach (ORMACO) kicks off the
2017/18 World Tour of Music series with the Columbus-based Irish group, *The
General Guinness Band* on October 28, 2017 at 8pm at Highland High School,
4150 Ridge Road, Medina. This acclaimed group has performed the music of
Ireland for over 35 years in hundreds of concerts, programs, festivals,
television and radio programs, including shows at Dollywood’s Valley
Theater and performing with the Chieftans.

Combining songs collected by vocalist and Kilkenny, Ireland native James
O’Shea with energetic fiddle tunes, four part harmonies, and Irish step
dancing, the band’s richly told stories-in-song also incorporate humor and
provide insight into the charming lore and myth of the Irish. This lively
group will perform repertoire heard nowhere else.


During the week of October 23, the group will be conducting outreach
programs in area schools, as well as four free Medina County District
Library workshops for the general public. The library workshops are:
Tuesday, October 24 at Lodi from 6:30-7:30pm; Wednesday, October 25 at
Buckeye from 2:30-3:30pm and Medina from 7:00-8pm; and Thursday, October 26
at Brunswick from 7:00-8pm.


As part of the festivities, Sully’s Irish Pub in Medina will be offering a
three course pre-concert Irish dinner for $15 per person (Rueben dip, Irish
stew and Bailey’s cheese cake). Dinner reservations are required at
330-764-3333 and mention the concert to receive this special deal.

Buehler’s stores, by calling 330-722-2541 or online at ormaco.org (credit
card processing fee applies). Tickets at the door are $12, cash or check
