Reverie Road

Irish Fest Madison returns with local favorites inspired by Celtic music — including O’Darby, Lilies of the Midwest, The Currach, Slipjig — and an intriguing lineup of touring performers. Longtime Gaelic Storm fiddler Katie Grennan brings two relatively new, eclectic projects to the fest: Reverie Road (also including two former Solas members) and The Bow Tides (featuring two other former Gaelic Storm fiddlers). Former Moxie Strings fiddler Diana Ladio collaborates with Americana singer-songwriter Brendan Forrest and band. And that’s just a sampling of the lineup. The fest begins with a pre-party at Awildan Distilling in Sun Prairie on May 17, moves to Karben4 Brewing on May 18, and to Garver Feed Mill on May 19. Find more schedule details below.

Pre-party 5-9 pm, 5/17, Awildan Distilling, Sun Prairie; noon-9 pm, 5/18, Karben4; 10 am-9 pm, 5/19, Garver Feed Mill.
