The Wolfhound, an Irish pub in Astoria, is set to host its ninth annual traditional Irish music festival from February 10-16. This week-long event will feature acclaimed artists like Cillian Vallely and Ivan Goff, alongside other acts, celebrating the rich heritage of 'trad music.' The festival, established in 2016, has grown rapidly, with co-owner Rory Murphy attributing its success to his connections in Irish music. The festival fosters community through the celebration of cultural roots and traditional performances.
Trad week started back in 2016 when we opened The Wolfhound. My mother is American, but I was born and raised in Ennis, Clare. My late father was a well-known musician in the West of Ireland.
This year's festival highlights renowned musicians, including Cillian Vallely and Ivan Goff, emphasizing The Wolfhound's commitment to fostering Irish music traditions.
