We've recently found out that we've been asked to come back for the second year in a row to play at the 2008 KVMR Celtic Festival this coming September in Grass Valley, CA!! This will be the 12th Annual KVMR Celtic Festival, and this year's lineup will be extremely exciting!!
The headliners this year are no less than one of the biggest bands in the Celtic genre, SOLAS!! We made a comment on stage last year about being "just a Karan Casey away from a Solas tribute band", and that says in the proverbial nutshell how Nine-8ths Irish feels about Solas. They are one of the best traditional Irish bands, even though the majority of the members are actually American-born! But enough about Solas....you can visit the KVMR website to read more about the entire festival as the late September date gets closer.
N8i will be playing two sets on both Saturday 9/27 and Sunday 9/28 (no Friday performances this year, as they have eliminated that due to lack of volunteers.) Our performance times are still TBA, but check our website - we'll be posting any other information as soon as we have it available!!
See you at the next show or Contra Dance!!
