Gaelic Americana Concert at Rocky Mount Library

Concert by Kyle Carey. 11/22. 6:30P @ Franklin County Public Library in Rocky Mount. Free. Kyle Carey’s unique trans-Atlantic fusion includes influences of American folk, the traditional music of Cape Breton, Ireland and Scotland, and the Appalachian poetry of Louise McNeill. As a young woman, Kyle traveled to Cape Breton on a Fulbright Fellowship to learn Scottish Gaelic. Afterwards, she spent a year on the Isle of Skye in Scotland, honing her skills in the Gaelic language and studying traditional singing techniques. She has released three albums—Monongah, North Star and The Art of Forgetting. All critically acclaimed, and all a direct and compelling expression of her distinctive “Gaelic Americana” sound. The free concert is open to the public and reservations are required by calling (540) 483-3098 option 0. Concert sponsored by the Friends of Main Library
