Event Highlights
May 19, 2012
The Missouri Valley Folklife Society will present the "Lift Band" for its final concert in this series. The Lift Band features three unique performers of the Irish traditional music, Turlach Boylan, Roger Landes and Doug Goodhart. Multi-instrumentalists all, The Lift Band features Irish flute; tinwhistle; bouzouki; fiddle; mandolin; tenor banjo; bodhran.
Turlach Boylan grew up on a farm in County Derry, Ireland. With a flute in his hands he is a rare 'force of nature'. The prominent Irish music magazine Dirty Linen writes "Most of all, it comes down to one fact: the boy can really play." Of ZoukFest founder and director Roger Landes, Celtic Heritage Magazine said: "Not only is Landes helping to legitimize the instrument -- he is taking it to a whole other level." He has performed with a variety of the most serious players of Irish music at home and abroad, and is founder and director of ZoukFest, an eclectic world music week in Santa Fe, NM. Doug Goodhart studied Irish music with legendary piper David Page and was a member of Page's ensemble Siamsa Gael Ceili Band. He has performed with masters of musical traditions from Abubakari Lunna (Ghana) to Donald Fontenot (Cajun Louisiana). Don't miss this.
