Blarney Stone Celtic & Irish Folk Band have delighted audiences around Queensland for years with their authentic folk sound.

But these Celtic Sessions will be something different to regular performance, much more interactive! In Ireland members of the audience are welcome to participate by singing along, or accompanying with an instrument, and that's what these Thursday nights will be all about. Blarney Stone will lead with their beautiful tunes, and we can all join in - or not! - as we fancy. Blarney Stone will also invite special guests from time to time to perform with them.

Join us for a fun, relaxed, and unique knees-up filled with music from all 5 Celtic nations! Everyone is welcome to participate or just sit back and enjoy the most fun Celtic night on the Peninsula.

As Blarney Stone themselves say:
Our band members Terri, Phil, Brendan & Col have between them many years of musical experience playing at various Irish and Scottish musical sessions and performances throughout Brisbane and the Gold Coast regions. The band formed at the end of 2015 and quickly became part of the Celtic music scene throughout South East Queensland, with an energetic and lively mix of folk styles and instruments. W have a large repertoire of well-loved traditional songs and tunes. drawn from a broad selection of Irish, Scottish and Australian material. Our sound is authentic and refreshingly irreverent with a high level of audience participation encouraged.
