Praised for their “unbridled vitality” by The New York Times, Solas has gained a reputation as the most popular and influential Celtic band to emerge from the United States. While they gained recognition as an exciting and virtuosic Celtic group, they’ve transcended their genre with a sound that is traditional, yet all their own. Since their founding in 1996, Solas has perfected a mix of folk and country melodies, bluesy jazz-inspired improvisations and global rhythms, and have gained fans in the likes of Bela Fleck, Emmylou Harris and rap-producer Timbaland, who sampled Solas in the radio hit “All Y'all”.

Solas joins the Madison Square Music stage on June 23rd! Bring a blanket and picnic dinner to this free concert on the Oval Lawn. All concerts are held rain or shine.
