17 More Days!!!

17 More days everyone!!! Just marched in the Lake County Fair Parade and passed out a boat load of coupons! Hope to see all the locals at the festival! But as the countdown continues our featured group of the day is the Willis Clan! The Willis Clan is a family of amazing musicians, dancers, athletes, writers, and artists. Living in middle Tennessee, they merge their Irish roots with other music and dance genres to create a unique blend of the old and new. As they say, "God has blessed us greatly and we enjoy a rich and rewarding life. It is also a lot of hard work. With twelve children, just keeping their names straight can be a challenge. All twelve children's names start with the letter “J”.

Some families go for quantity, some for quality. But we ask, is it too much to ask for both? Not with the Willis Clan.

The Willis Clan will be performing on our Traditional Stage Saturday 9/1 at 3:05 and 9, Sunday 9/2 at 4:30 and 9, and Monday 9/3 at 2:15.

20 Days Left!!!

Well Folks today marks 20 days till the Festival Kicks Off!!! Our featured artist comes all the way from California, yes that's right, The Fenians are coming back to Ohio!!! 

A Celtic Heart with a Rock n Roll soul. For nearly two decades now, The Fenians have delivered their potent mix of traditional Irish folk and good old rock n roll all across the USA and Ireland. With an ever expanding set of original creations, as well as contemporary and traditional tunes plucked from the panoply of the genre, these five lads put on a live show that is second to none. Their foundation is decidedly Celtic, but there is no mistaking the complimentary influences of Rock, Folk, Bluegrass, Jazz, and World music. 

Through their music and voices, Terry Casey, Rob Williams, Brendan Harkins, Tardu Yegin, and Bryon Holley represent Everyman - sweet and sorrowful; brave and beautiful; angry and amused.

So come check them out on our Celtic Rock Stage Saturday 10/1 at 3:30 and 9 p.m. and Sunday 10/2 at the same times!
