Celtic Thunder
Over the past twelve months, Australians have been quietly discovering
what American audiences already know, that CELTIC THUNDER is a
phenomenal international hit. With their DVD and CD "The
Show" having just gone twice Platinum in Australia and their
DVD "The Show" still in the Top 30 ARIA charts after
a staggering 33 weeks, CELTIC THUNDER - Emmet Cahill, Keith Harkin,
Ryan Kelly, George Donaldson and Neil Byrne - are set to tour
Australia for the very first time in February 2012.
Celtic Thunder formed in 2008 and comprises of
five diverse performers who are each a powerhouse in both their
solo and ensemble songs. The group is backed by the dynamic Celtic
Thunder Band and their shows are known for the use of dramatic
effects of lighting and choreography as well as a stage set resembling
an ancient stone pathway suggestive of those referenced in Celtic
lore. They've now toured the US and Canada, coast to coast, four
times with over 200 concert dates and 400,000 concert tickets
sold, while their albums have sold well in excess of one million
units. They are commencing their fifth tour of the US this September.
"We are blown away by the reaction
to Celtic Thunder in Australia. We had such a great welcome when
we were out there in March for promo so we can't wait to get back,
and bring The Show out on the road and meet our Aussie fans"
said Celtic Thunder's Keith Harkin.
