    Solas ...playing near me soon

    Is there any love for Solas here?

    They will be performing at Frankfort's newly renovated Grand Theatre Friday, January 29.

    I'm only partially acquainted with the group, but I like what I've heard.

    Excellent band! I'm sure it will be a great show! That said, I liked them best back in the '90s when John Doyle (my fave backing guitarist) was playing with them.

    The singer's voice is so pure and sweet. Would love to hear her give 'Both Sides of the Tweed' a go. Or Dougie Maclean's 'Caledonia'.

    Love 'em. I wish they'd make it out here. I'd go see that show in a heartbeat.
