Lilt, Irish Traditional Music - In-person

Celebrate Irish American Heritage Month

Lilt is the Irish traditional music duo of Tina Eck on flute and tin whistle and Keith Carr on bouzouki and tenor banjo. Kick up your heels and join us.

Lilt is the Irish traditional music duo of Tina Eck on flute and tin whistle, and Keith Carr on bouzouki and tenor banjo. They play the traditional dance music of Ireland - jigs, reels, hornpipes, the occasional slow air or vocal number. Their performances capture the essentials of Irish traditional music: boundless energy, wildness and melancholy. 

They have been performing together steadily since 2009 and have released four albums: "Lilt", "Onward", “Little Falls”, and their latest, ”X". Their recordings have been critically acclaimed in the US and in the international Irish music press.  

Lilt has appeared in concerts throughout the eastern U.S., including performances at such notable local venues as The Kennedy Center, The Birchmere, The Institute of Musical Traditions, The Embassy of Ireland, as well as numerous music festivals.

Come join us for this festive occasion; you won't want to stop dancing.
