BROWNFIELD, Maine — The Irish traditional ensemble, Dervish, has performed together more than 30 years. Now you can catch a rare concert on our side of the pond at the acclaimed music venue Stone Mountain Arts Center on Friday, Jan. 17.

From the band’s humble beginnings in the low-slung pubs of County Sligo to sold-out audiences in South America, Asia and across the United States, the group has garnered accolades abroad and at home.
