September News from Elias Alexander
Bywater West Coast Tour and Fàrsan at Celtic Colours!
Happy Fall!
This autumn is going to be extremely busy, with tons of great festivals and tours coming up!
I’ll be playing shows up and down the West Coast, as well as in the Northeast, Southeast, and Cape Breton.
It all starts off this weekend with Soulsha at The New Hampshire Highland Games in Loon Mountain, NH, one of the largest Scottish Festivals in America.
Then The Bywater Band takes off for California to play the epic KVMR Celtic Festival, and tour up the West Coast from the Bay Area to Portland. We’ll be on the road Sept 25th-Oct 3rd, hitting Monterey, San Francisco, Grass Valley, Berkeley, Arcata, Ashland, and Portland. Check the column on the right for details. And by the way look at the lineup for KVMR Celtic Fest. It’s going to an incredible year!!!! Then MAC will be making a brief appearance at Bellingham Irish Festival Oct 4th.
After that I’ll join Seven Nations for the Seaside Highland Games in Ventura, CA, for a weekend.
Then I’ll fly away to Cape Breton to play the legendary Celtic Colours International Festival with Fàrsan. Celtic Colours is one of the biggest Celtic festivals in the world, and it’s such an honor to be invited there!
Whew! Looks like that amounts to five different bands in six weekends. Oy.
You can always find my whole schedule as well as lots of videos and other fun stuff at my website, www.eliasalexander.com.
Work hard, delve deep, and take care of each other, and I hope to see you out there in this big world!
