Men of Worth to open concert season
POLSON — Mission Valley Live will present Men of Worth, the first performance of the 2015-2016 season, at Polson High School at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 20. They Scottish and Irish folk duo, performing just days before in Inverness, Scotland, position themselves at the folk and traditional end of the Celtic music spectrum. Opening for Men of Worth will be performers from the local group, “Shamrockers.”
In 1986, Scotsman Donnie Macdonald and Irishman James Keigher came together to perform Irish and Scottish folk music, combining traditional and contemporary styles. The name “Men of Worth” was chosen from the title of a folk song written by the Scottish singer/songwriter Archie Fisher.
Together Men of Worth blend their voices with harmony and support their collection of songs with their varied selection of instruments. They have a very simple approach to their presentation, and in keeping with tradition, remain true to the music and story. Their show is a unique combination of humor, exciting tunes, and soulful, heartfelt ballads.
Men of Worth are an international act, and have earned much respect and success in over two decades of touring. Performing concerts, festivals, and having recorded eleven albums, Men of Worth continue the very tradition from which they evolved.
