Join us at Dreaming Stone Arts and Ecology Center on December 13th for the third concert in our series, “The Music That Reconnects” with “Émigré” This event is a continuation of our fall and winter concert series that will feature fantastically talented musicians and educators who draw from varied musical traditions to connect us more deeply with ourselves, each other, and the world.
This special holiday show will feature Celtic folk songs, tunes & ballads alongside a Christmas-themed selection from Appalachia to Scotland.
Émigré will perform a variety of music tracing the diaspora of the Irish and Scots across the ocean to North America. Their repertoire will include ballads and fiddle tunes from Great Britain and Ireland, as well as songs from the French-speaking regions of Canada, and melodies familiar in both Appalachia and the North Atlantic. The band’s name originates from the dispersal of peoples, ideas, and music that resulted from centuries of emigration from Ireland and Scotland, as well as from the unique music that emerged when these were combined with others from a world away. The sound of Émigré is characterized by rich vocal melodies in Scots Gaelic, French, and English, dynamic fiddle playing, and driving guitar accompaniment.
This event will be held at Dreaming Stone Arts & Ecology Center on December 13 th, 2025 @ 7:00 pm. (Doors open at 6:00 pm). Seats are limited, so we kindly request that you purchase your tickets in advance. The entrance fee is on a sliding scale. Drinks will be available for purchase.
