Known for their soothing and nostalgic mix of Emerald Isle numbers like “Danny Boy” and “When Irish Eyes Are Smiling,” there is no question the trio with their beautifully trained voices embodies the tradition of the grand Irish tenor.

Dublin-born performer Tynan became famous after 9/11 for singing "God Bless America" during the seventh-inning stretch at Yankees games. This heartfelt and patriotically charged endeavor is present and palpable at every concert, on every stage – whether it be Ellis Island in New York harbor, The Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, Sydney Opera House in Australia, or at home by the shores of the lakes of Killarney, the passion in their voices is unashamed, abundant and free. 

 The Irish Tenors were started in 1998 by television producer Bill Hughes for a PBS special The Irish Tenors. By the fall of 2004, after the albums We Three Kings and Heritage reached success, The Irish Tenors had nearly become a household name, possibly due to many appearances on The Today Show, Good Morning America, Live With Regis And Kelly, 20/20 and A&E Breakfast With The Arts. To date, The Irish Tenors have recorded five PBS specials and their seven albums have resulted in millions of albums sold. In the United States, they are one of the most successful Irish touring acts ever, second only to U2.

This will be a holiday treat for the whole family - and the timing could not be any better! Enjoy what is sure to be a show to remember.
