Join us at Anderson Plaza, in the South Dakota Art Museum's backyard, for free performances on Tuesday evenings in July, 6-7:30 p.m. Bring your own picnic, chair and blanket. We’ll have snacks and drinks for purchase, yard games and plenty of space for fun on the Campus Green while you enjoy the performance.
On Tuesday, July 29, Paddywhack will perform traditional folk music from Ireland and the British Isles. With more than a dozen instruments and 3-part vocal harmonies, Paddywhack offers a stunning variety of musical styles, songs and dance tunes. Band members include Chris Sayre, Terry Keefe and David Marsh. Their repertoire of songs includes acapella sea shanties, Irish pub sing-alongs, provocative ballads and rebel songs.
Traditional dance tunes of jigs, reels, hornpipes and waltzes utilize their extensive list of instruments, which includes guitar, fiddle, mandolin, English concertina, banjo, tin whistle, accordion, hammered dulcimer, piano, bodhran (Irish drum) and more. So come “laugh, dance and sing” with music inspired by the ancient Celts, Scottish kilts, English coal miners, Irish leprechauns and an evening at the pub, with the music of Paddywhack.
In case of inclement weather, we’ll move the performance inside the art museum. Free parking is available in the parking lots south and west of the museum, no need for permits or passes after 4 pm. See you there!
