Chattanooga Celtic band, Ealaíonta, will perform at the Mentone Inn in Mentone, AL, on Saturday, April 18, 2009, for the After Dark Music Series. The music will be Celtic traditional tunes and songs taken from the pub session repertoire.

“We are very excited about the opportunity to perform at the Mentone Inn,” says Hammered Dulcimer player Rick Davis. The Historic Mentone Inn is located at 6139 Al. Hwy 117 in Mentone, AL. Ealaíonta’s performance will be from 7PM to 9PM (CDT) [8-10PM (EDT)]. Come out and enjoy a light dinner and good Celtic music with us.

Ealaionta (pronounced ah-lee-AHN-ta) is three talented and experienced Chattanooga area musicians with varied musical backgrounds and a love of Celtic music. Flute/whistle player Ken Doyle says about this, “We try to find a rhythmic and harmonic structure that truly resonates with the traditional tunes, blending the pure-drop traditional with some contemporary influences without severing the roots the music comes from.”
