SUMMARY:Karan Casey
DESCRIPTION:Karan Casey has been a force in Irish music for more than three decades. A masterful singer and storyteller\, she brings ballads\, love songs\, and powerful social-justice work into the present with clarity\, fire\, and heart. Her voice is unmistakable—tender\, commanding\, and rooted in tradition while always pushing into new territory. \nOver her expansive career\, she’s toured the world\, released eleven acclaimed albums\, and collaborated with artists ranging from James Taylor to Béla Fleck\, The Chieftains\, and Peggy Seeger. She’s also a founder of FairPlé\, the movement for gender equity in Irish traditional and folk music\, and continues to expand her artistry through theatre\, spoken word\, and original composition. \nHer latest album\, Nine Apples of Gold\, soared to No. 1 on the US Folk Radio charts and cemented her place as one of the most vital voices in contemporary folk. \nWe’re thrilled to welcome Karan Casey back to De la Luz on March 8. Karan was one of the first artists we had the honor to present when we first reopened in September\, 2024.  She returns just in time for St. Patrick’s season\, and we are so pleased to host her again. This show will be intimate\, moving\, and beautifully Irish.
