On the Edge, presented by Grounded Dance Company, showcases a wide variety of choreography embracing the concept of war. Whether you interpret war at a global level or at an individual level, every moment of our existence there is constant push and pull, visible or hidden struggles and internal battles. Where will your thoughts and emotions take you over the course of the show?
Hailing originally from Cork in the south of Ireland, Patsy O’Brien has traveled the globe with guitar in hand ~ accompanying, creating and recording with some of the giants of Irish music. Veteran Irish music critic Paul Dromey declares Patsy “Ireland’s best-kept musical secret”, after attending his opening performance for Kinky Friedman some years back. He is a veteran of premier Irish festivals and hosts guitar workshops all over the country.
As well as supplying the driving guitar rhythms on Celtic/World Music diva Eileen Ivers’ last European tour, and frequently treading the boards and collaborating with many giants of the Celtic/World music scene (Paddy Keenan. Cathie Ryan among them), Patsy’s songwriting reflects a strong interest in roots Americana as well as Jazz influences. On top of his stellar musicianship and award winning songwriting, Patsy is funny and engaging in concert “with that twinkle in his eye that reaches back to the Emerald Isle.”
