Kilkenny Rhythm and Roots Festival

Kilkenny City

04 May 2012 - 07 May 2012

Kilkenny Rhythm and Roots Festival, now in its 15th year, represents all forms of what we like to call Americana. From midday to midnight audiences wind their way through the medieval streets sampling the huge range of music in over 30 venues, hosting over 30 acts from Ireland, USA, Canada and UK, with over 30 ticketed and 50 free shows. There's a mixture of old and new acts on the free pub gig trail and all styles will be catered for, from swing to bluegrass, rockabilly to Cajun, folk & blues, at what the Irish Times describes as 'Ireland's most compact and hospitable music festival, where virtually everything is low-key but high grade'." .
