The group known for their performance in the academy award winning movie The Titanic and Billboard world chart toppers, Gaelic Storm, will be bringing the Akron Opera House to life Sunday, March 21 with one performance at 7:30 p.m. This group, being presented by The Hometowner of Akron, is sure to be a crowd pleaser with their sounds of Celtic music and tickets are going fast. Call 712-568-8747 for tickets. In the movie Titanic, Celtic Storm was the band playing during the steerage party towards the beginning of the movie. Since their appearance in the film more than a decade ago, the band continues to present an engaging mix of traditional music, dance music, and songs all performed with energy and enthusiasm turning the group into one of the premier touring acts in the Celtic music genre. Gaelic Storm released their seventh album, “What’s the Rumpus?” in July 2008 with a stellar debut at No. 1 on the Billboard World Album Chart, No. 1 on the iTunes World Album Chart and No. 5 on the Billboard Internet Album Chart. Inspired by the music that dries their loyal fan base, “What’s the Rumpus?” is a wild party of album full of colorful characters and outrageous stories, flavored with Gaelic Storm’s signature acoustic sound that gets you dancing and never lets you go. Consistently touring over 125 dates per year, the group routinely breaks attendance and merchandise sales records, headlining the world’s largest Celtic festivals as well as mainstream events. The group consists of five members: Patrick Murphy, Steve Twigger, Ryan Lacey, Pete Purvis, and Jessie Burns. Don’t miss this opportunity to see this nationally known band as they make Akron a stop on their tour schedule.  They are at the House of Blues in Chicago, IL just a week prior.
