Using the superb acoustics of the landmark 1735 church, Historic Christ Church is presenting a spring concert Bringing Life to Music featuring nationally and internationally known musicians. The spring concert on May 21 features the Philadelphia-based John Byrne Band, led by its eponymous Dublin native. With critical acclaim on both sides of the Atlantic, John's music honors and expands upon Celtic/folk musical and lyrical traditions. Renowned for splendid story-telling, top-notch musicianship and creative mix of songs, the six member band is an acoustic banjo/accordion, fiddle/cello, guitars, drums and brass ensemble.
