About this concert
"Odyssey," a new show from internationally acclaimed group Celtic Thunder, is a fascinating exploration of Irish music and culture, firmly grounded in the ensemble's impressive history, while ambitiously forging new paths. The word 'Odyssey' implies a significant journey, and that's precisely what audiences are invited on - a sweeping voyage through the heartlands of traditional Irish music, the rhythmic pulse of contemporary Irish music, and the innovative original arrangements that are emblematic of Celtic Thunder's unique sound.
Celtic Thunder’s shared musical chemistry, steeped in their Irish heritage, gives the show its compelling power, while each member adds their distinctive voice and charm to this musical journey, creating a harmonious blend that appeals to a broad spectrum of tastes. The "Odyssey" songbook weaves a rich tapestry of emotional and musical tones.
Audiences will be swept up in an energetic rendition of "Go Lassie Go," a traditional folk song that has been given a new lease of life through Celtic Thunder's vibrant harmonies and fresh musical interpretation. The poignant "City of Chicago" serves as a moving tribute to the Irish diaspora, resonating deeply with its heartfelt lyrics and evocative melodies. And "The Parting Glass," an iconic classic from the annals of Irish music, is delivered with such profound emotion that it reverberates through the soul.
The talented Celtic Thunder Band lends their instrumental prowess throughout, providing an authentic and sonically rich backdrop to the vocal performances. Their expert musicianship underscores the music's Irish roots, while their versatility ensures that every song, regardless of genre, is treated with the respect and creativity it deserves.
Memorable musical moments take place on a stage that brilliantly embodies the ethereal mystique of Celtic folklore and the grounded reality of contemporary Irish life. World-class production quality, with a stunning lighting design, paints an atmospheric picture that enhances the emotive resonance of the songs. Detailed and elegant costumes strike a balance between traditional Celtic attire and modern aesthetics, symbolizing the group's successful fusion of the old and the new.
"Odyssey" is not simply a concert; it's a powerful theatrical experience that honors Celtic Thunder's rich musical legacy and simultaneously blazes new trails. An evocative journey through time, sound, and culture, as educational as it is entertaining. The captivating blend of music, storytelling, and atmospheric stagecraft makes "Odyssey" a must-see spectacle for fans of Celtic Thunder and Irish music in general.

The show was wonderful, as always, but way too short. The Lads were in excellent voice - we missed Ryan Kelly terribly and pray that he's doing better. Also missed having Column Keegan with the group this time.
This Group never disappoints and I can't wait wait for their next show!
Excellent show!!!
