Dunquin
Dunquin Irish trio (sometimes a duo) was born about fifteen years ago to play the traditional music of West Kerry in Ireland; since then, the band has branched out to other Celtic music and even Scandinavian music. The town of Dunquin in County Kerry was a major embarkation point of Irish emigrants to America; hence our name reflects a strong Irish-to-American connection. Dunquin performs at festivals and events in Minnesota and Wisconsin, including the Minnesota Irish Fair and several historic sites.
Dunquin presents several concerts every year and is available for weddings, parties and celebrations of all kinds. Dunquin has recorded two studio albums and several live concerts. Its members include Sherry Ladig (piano), Don Ladig (flute and whistles) and Rosa Wells (fiddle).

This is our 18th trip to the beautiful island of Eilean Dubh!

This year we play some tasty Scottish baroque settings for fiddle, viola, and cello, as well as flute, piano and Scottish smallpipes. We've also got vigorous reels, merry jigs, heart-melting airs and Scottish mouth music. And the fabulous tea is worth the price of admission alone! $18 at the door. Hall opens at 7 p.m.; music commences at 7:30 p.m. Don't miss this one!
