Tomáseen Foley

Tomáseen Foley grew up on a small farm in the remote parish of Teampall an Ghleanntáin in the West of Ireland - where storytelling ‘was as natural as breathing.’ Each year from Thanksgiving through the Christmas season, his show, Tomáseen Foley's A Celtic Christmas, plays to critical acclaim and packed concert halls all over the US – from California to Maine. In conjunction with the Omaha Symphony and other orchestras, he performs in Celtic Journey - as well as occasional performances with Apollo’s Fire (Cleveland’s Grammy-winning baroque orchestra), and Brian Bigley's An Irish Rambling House, with many of the performers from A Celtic Christmas .

He has released three CDs: A Celtic Christmas: Parcel From America, a live recording, The Priest and the Acrobat, and his latest, Celtic Knots: An Irish Love Story, Irish music woven around the poems and love story of William Butler Yeats.
