Eddie Delahunt Presented by Bonebrake Promotions at GPT in Abilene, Kansas

Irish Folk Singer, Eddie Delahunt performs August 27th at Great Plains Theatre

Abilene, KS, August 23, 2107:  Great Plains Theatre and Bonebrake Productions opens its first of a ten concert series with Eddie Delahunt an Irish folk musician, on Saturday, August 27^th at 7pm, at Great Plains Theatre, 401 Cottage Avenue, Abilene.  Delahunt born and raised in Dublin, Ireland, came to America in 1989 with rucksack in hand and guitar on his shoulder.  Delahunt opened in America with a 2-week gig at pub in Kansas City and the rest is history.  Since he began his music career, Delahunt has released numerous CD's.  His latest CD is Whiskey, Wakes, and Weddings, revisits traditional favorites with some new material.  "Performing is the best feeling of all," says Eddie, "it's never the same twice.  I never use a set list as one song begets another, and one crowd is, of course, different than another.  A nice applause is always appreciated, but putting a smile on someone's face or a tear in their eye-that's magic."  Delahunt's music features traditional Irish ballads, energized guitar riffs, and original lyrics and tunes.  "Eddie's Irish charm is infectious," says James Holland, Producer of Bonebrake Promotions.

Bonebrake Promotions and Great Plains Theatre are producing a series of ten concerts to perform in Abilene between August and February 2017.    "We had a great partnership with Bonebrake Promotions before we lost the building in 2014," states Elizabeth Weese, Executive Director of Great Plains Theatre, "and James and I have renewed the partnership to bring a variety of music back to GPT and Abilene."  Hollands says, "I relish the opportunity to have live music back in Abilene on a consistent basis."    For more information about upcoming events please visit our website at greatplainstheatre.com.

Tickets to the Eddie Delahunt concert are $10 for general admission or you may reserve a table for $60 which includes four tickets. Tickets maybe be purchased by calling 785.263.4574 or by visiting our website at greatplainstheatre.com.
