Kitty Donohoe

Kitty Donohoe will perform “The Heart of Ireland” in concert on Sunday, March 13th at 2 p.m. at the Lisle Library District, 777 Front St., Lisle. This concert is free and all are welcome.                                                                                                Based in Ann Arbor, Michigan  Emmy recipient Kitty Donohoe draws from her Irish heritage as well as her American roots in her music, which is rich, earthy and compelling, making good use of her gifts for storytelling, her love of language, and her ear for melody. "A collection of fiery jigs and reels, humorous and mournful songs, airs, stories and poetry – all of the things that make the Irish culture so special." “Kitty Donohoe is a true treasure – a rare songwriter with tremendous range, a beautiful voice and an ability to write haunting, melodic and literate songs. She deserves a wider audience.”    All Music Guide Rich Warren of WFMT Chicago has included Kitty on his list of the “50 most significant songwriters in the last 50 years” and “far above and beyond most singersongwriters.”
