St. Patrick’s Day celebrations start early this year in Rockport with a returning favorite, Danú! Hailing from historic County Waterford, Danú is one of Ireland’s most cherished Irish folk bands and among the leaders of the new traditionalist movement in Celtic music. They have been thrilling audiences with their instrumental virtuosity, high-energy performances and a glorious mix of ancient Irish music and new repertoire for more than 25 years.
