EARLVILLE — The Earlville Opera House is pleased to present the fun and shenanigans of Tumbleweed Gumbo in the Arts Café on Sunday, March 13 at 1 p.m. – right in time for St. Patrick’s Day!

Have you ever imagined yourself in an Irish Pub, joining in on those old rowdy songs about the Wild Rover and the Star of the County Down? Imagine no more! With Larry Jordan leading the charge, we’re gonna have a rollikin, swollikin, bold old time belting the choruses of Bold O’Donoghue, Black Velvet Band, The Rising of the Moon and many more.

Sure, you can just stomp your feet, clap your hands, and hoot as Central New York legend Liz Fiddle shreds Irish, Scottish, Quebec, and Cape Breton fiddle tunes between drinking songs (with a little help from Werner Koegst on bass, Steve Blais on bodhrán and button accordion), but we’ll make the singin’ easy for yez with lyric sheets and unconditional love for whatever comes outta yer gob!

Also, don't forget to take chance on your luck by purchasing tickets to our exciting St. Patrick’s Day Basket Raffle. This basket of treasure contains: A bottle of Buskers Irish Whiskey; A set of four whiskey glasses and six shot glasses; $100 worth of scratch lottery tickets; Golden Artist Colors Williamsburg Handmade Oils set with apron, t-shirt, and informational materials; Fresh ground NYC coffee with two Irish mugs; Organic peppermint tea; Artisan made wooden coasters; Mint candy and marzipan; Genuine Aventurine 14k gold-filled wire earrings and Claddagh Ring guitar pick earrings by Mystic Mountain Designs, a value of over $500!
