Irish music duo performs at KAC Oct. 13

Kirkland Art Center, 9 ½ E. Park Row, will be filled with jigs, reels and hornpipes on Thursday, Oct. 13, at 7:30 p.m. when renowned musicians, Alison Perkins and Nicolas Brown, take the stage.

Perkins and Brown are recognized as one of the brightest Irish music duos in the United States. They have been playing music on the uilleann pipes, flute, and fiddle together for 15 years. Since the release of their album, “All Covered With Moss,” they have been delighting audiences with their close musical partnership.

Together and as individual artists, they have performed and taught at festivals, concerts, and tionóil (“gatherings” in Irish) across North America. The two musicians research forgotten settings of tunes and introduce them to audiences in a musical style that is known to be bold, spirited, unique, and undeniably rooted in the tradition.

Tickets are available at the door for $15. The KAC Gallery is wheelchair accessible. For more information, go to www.kacny. org.
