EARLVILLE - Join Earlville Opera House at 7 p.m. this Friday, December 13 for Grammy-awarded and Emmy-nominated musician, Eileen Ivers.
A short list of her accomplishments includes headliners, tours and affiliations with the London Symphony Orchestra and Boston Pops; guest starring with over 50 orchestras; original Musical Star of Riverdance; Nine-Time All-Ireland Fiddle Champion; performing with Sting, Hall and Oates, The Chieftains, 'Fiddlers 3', and Patti Smith among others; founding member of Cherish the Ladies; movie soundtracks including “Gangs of New York”; and performing for Presidents and Royalty worldwide. The daughter of Irish immigrants, Eileen Ivers grew up in the culturally diverse neighborhood of the Bronx, New York. Rooted in Irish traditional music since the age of eight, Eileen proceeded to win nine All-Ireland fiddle championships, a tenth on tenor banjo and over 30 championship medals, making her one of the most awarded persons ever to compete in these prestigious competitions. She has been proclaimed “a national treasure” as she celebrates her 30 plus year career as a performer, composer, producer, songwriter, band leader, educator, multi-instrumentalist and renowned pioneer in connecting her American, Irish traditional, jazz, blues, and world roots.
