HAWLEY AND MILFORD, PA — Irish music artists Nuala Kennedy and Eamon O’Leary will offer two special performances in Northeast Pennsylvania: one on Saturday, August 20 at 5:30 p.m. at Grey Towers National Historical Site in Milford, and one on Sunday, August 21 at 4:30 p.m. at the Hawley Silk Mill in Hawley. Tickets for adults cost $20. Students and children under 15 will be admitted free.

Kennedy, on flute and vocals, performs on the main stage at festivals around the world, regularly records albums and has been the cover-story artist in Sing Out! and Irish Music magazines. She is known as “a flute player and composer of remarkable finesse, fearless of the unknown,” (The Irish Times).

O’Leary, who sings and plays guitar and bouzouki, was born in Dublin, where he picked up the guitar and became friends with the Mayock family, traditional musicians from County Mayo. After moving to New York City in 1991, he became a fixture in the thriving Irish music scene and has toured North America and Europe with many of Irish music’s A-list performers.

Tickets for both concerts cost $20. They can be purchased in advance at Books and Prints at Pear Alley, 220 Broad Street, Milford, on the website of Kindred Spirits Arts Programs (www.kindredspiritsarts.org), or at the door. Students and children under 15 will be admitted free.
