Clan O’Cleary Concert this Sunday

The City Cabaret 2020 Concert Series is back after the holidays and ready for some good old-fashioned Irish music. Performing this Sunday, January 19th, will be renown local musician Steve Cleary with his Celtic band Clan O’Cleary. The show will be held in the City of Groton Municipal Building Auditorium on Sunday beginning at 3:00 p.m.

Clan O’Cleary’s music is firmly rooted in the sounds and the instruments of Ireland. Beautifully harmonious in both voices and instruments, from the soft mysticism of New Age Celtic to the raucous songs of the Irish bar band, this is Irish music played with gusto and grace, as it should be.
