EARLVILLE – The Earlville Opera House presents the Celtic music of Comas on Saturday at 8 p.m. When you hear Comas you’ll know that their name was no accident, translating from Irish/ Gaelic as POWER. “And power is exactly what this band is about. Depicting their own driving power coupled with a fine sensitivity for the inner strands of magic that is inherent in Irish music.” NBT Bank generously sponsors this performance.
“Comas, one of Europe’s most sensational Celtic bands, brings together four of the most exciting musicians of their generation.” (The Irish Post) Ireland’s Aiden Burke came up in the music and dance of Ireland from an early age. Perhaps destined for the fiddle, having Kevin Burke (of Patrick Street, Bothy Band) as his cousin, he has won twenty All-Ireland championships on fiddle.
The mastery of multi-instrumentalist Philip Masure from Belgium on the guitar is palpable. He has become one of the most sought-after guitarists on the Celtic scene and is also in demand as a studio musician.
