Write a commentThe Dady Brothers, return to the Music Hall stage on Saturday, April 21, 2018. Located in the McCrobie Civic Center, 41 Lake Street Oswego, show time is 7:30 pm; doors open 7:00.
Tickets are $15 (advance sale $13). "When you think of Irish Music, you think of the Dady Brothers... the preeminent folk group in Rochester.” —Simon Pontin, WXXI-FM.
The Dady Brothers are a musical duo who have been performing and winning the hearts of crowds professionally for over 40 years. From Alaska to Ireland; the Caribbean to Nova Scotia, they have performed well over 5,000 shows at concert halls, schools, music festivals and night clubs.
“The Dady Brothers are a local treasure and two of the best musicians you're likely to hear. Singing from the Heart is a beautiful tribute to the music the boys find most moving, from Dixieland to Celtic. They're equally adept at playing folk, country, rock & roll or Irish music... a great mix of modern sounds and old-fashioned musical integrity.” — City Newspaper, Rochester
"John and Joe Dady consistently win praise for their musicianship and presentation. Their style blends fiddle, mandolin, whistle, guitar, bodhran, banjo, harmonica and uilleann pipes to deliver a superb fusion of Irish and American roots music." —Adirondack Lakes Center for the Arts
"The Dady Brothers have wonderful instrumental work and harmonies. The variety of music they play including guitar, violin, and octave mandolin gives their music a lot of texture and their humor is truly delightful. They're fine musicians and the nicest couple of guys you'd want to be stuck in an airport with.” —Rick Dougherty of the Kingston Trio
Their on-stage wit and wide musical repertoire make every performance too short! To listen to a video clip or for more information visit: www.dadybros.com
