Eileen Ivers - Cleveland Irish Festival 2009

You may have heard of Eileen Ivers. All-Ireland fiddle champ, member of the band in the show River Dance, the "Jimi Hendrix" of the violin on and on. She is inventive, incredible, funny, exciting and wicked good.


I had the opportunity to see her and her band play at the Cleveland Irish Festival in July 2009. When you realize the level of talent you are seeing it is even more amazing that she is so unassuming.

Eileen is just at home with the Boston Pops as she is sitting with a few friends sharing fiddle tunes. And the audiences love her for it.
