Colm Ó Riain: Irish Fission (Double Show!)

Irish-born violinist Colm Ó Riain and some stellar musical friends combine the music of Ireland with rhythms and melodies from all over the musical world – jazz, blues, Roma, India, Cuba, Brazil, and much more.

Featuring:
Colm Ó Riain – violin
Joe Kyle Jr – bass
Geoff van Lienden – guitar
Wade Peterson – percussion

An accomplished and fiery improviser in many genres, as well as a composer for multiple modern dance companies, Colm has enthralled audiences on stages as diverse as CBGB’s in New York and Davies Symphony Hall in San Francisco. About.com called his 2016 album, Bridge Across the Blue, co-produced with poet Pireeni Sundaralingam, “one of the Top 7 recordings of poetry and music of all time.”
