Description

Described by The Irish Voice as “the hottest Irish acoustic band on the planet,” Lúnasa brings the brilliance and fire of contemporary Irish music to the stage. Named after an ancient Celtic harvest festival honoring the Irish god Lugh, patron of the arts, the band unites some of Ireland’s most celebrated instrumentalists in a dazzling display of virtuosity and ensemble precision.

Featuring bassist Trevor Hutchinson (The Waterboys), guitarist Ed Boyd (Flook, Michael McGoldrick Band), fiddler Sean Smyth, flutist Kevin Crawford, and piper Cillian Vallely (Riverdance, Bruce Springsteen collaborator), Lúnasa has been hailed as an “Irish music dream team.” Their intricate arrangements, pulsing rhythms, and soulful melodies create a sound that’s both timeless and forward-looking—a living, breathing celebration of Irish tradition at its most electrifying.

This concert is presented in partnership with Celtic Bayou Festival.

Acadiana Center for the Arts

Our mission is fostering art and culture in Acadiana.

Founded in 1975, Acadiana Center for the Arts (“AcA”) is a community-supported nonprofit organization that fosters art and culture in Acadiana. Since its founding, AcA has developed as a major force, shaping the future of public education and community development in South Louisiana.

AcA supports the creation of new works of art, exhibits, festivals, performances, and public art across an eight-parish region that includes Acadia, Evangeline, Iberia, Lafayette, St. Landry, St. Martin, St. Mary, and Vermilion Parishes.  

AcA aims to bring equitable access to the arts and supports fair compensation of artists. On average, AcA serves over 300,000 people annually and provides fair compensation to 2,700 artists.  

In 2013, the AcA merged with the Performing Arts Society of Acadiana (“PASA”), whose mission was to educate, inspire, entertain, and culturally enrich the people of south Louisiana by providing local access to a diverse range of the performing arts. This merger supported the vision of both organizations and provided much-needed support to PASA’s programs. Founded in 1989, PASA served as a leading voice in the performing arts in South Louisiana for close to three decades.
