The Friends of Celtic Culture is a Michigan Non-profit Organization of Saginaw Valley residents dedicated to the promotion of Celtic culture.
The
Friends of Celtic (pronounced: Kel-tick) Culture (FCC) have big plans for 2007. And according to group spokesman, Denny Hayes, those big plans include Dublin-born, singer, storyteller, and historian, Danny Doyle.
"He is one of that rare and cherished group of Irish singers whose voices are instantly recognizable. He is an international treasure," says the Irish Echo, in New York.
Danny Doyle has had an impressive concert career that has spanned more than three decades while bringing his ballads, history, and stories of Ireland to audiences around the world.
The FCC are moving their February concert, featuring the Irish balladeer, to the Van Buren Street Theatre, one block South of Center Avenue in Bay City.

Known as one of the best balladeers and singers in the cabaret genre, Doyle's range runs from gentle to aggressive, always with depth and feeling in his voice. Doyle was raised on songs from the last of Dublin's street singers and is often described as one of the most remarkable singers in his part of the Celtic Realm.
