Legendary Celtic guitarist Tony McManus brings his remarkable musical storytelling to the stage, weaving traditions from across the Celtic world into a sound that feels both ancient and freshly alive. Hailed as one of the great guitar voices of our time, McManus transforms the acoustic guitar into a vessel for bagpipe ornamentation, fiddle phrasing, and the lilt of Gaelic song, creating music that unfolds like a well-told tale.
Joining him in a rare collaboration is South Australia Music Hall of Fame awardee Andrew Clermont, whose soaring fiddle, mandolin, and guitar playing is matched by nearly three decades of international performing experience. Together, they explore melodies shaped by Scotland, Ireland, Brittany, Cape Breton, and beyond, punctuated by easy humour and relaxed conversation.
This is an evening where virtuosity serves connection, and laughter sits comfortably alongside deeply expressive music.
