The Wild Swans present a very special event! For the first time ever, a concert will be performed in the Dillinger Courtroom in the Pima County Historic Courthouse!

This historic venue provides the perfect backdrop for a musical evening of Irish legend, folklore, and history.

The theme of the program features songs, stories, and poems of Rebels, Blackguards, Outlaws, and Crimes of Passion. Feel the passion of Irish music as it expresses love, laughter, defiance, sorrow, justice and injustice.

Mikey and Katie along with special guest musicians bring these stories alive in this very unique performance.

Purchase your tickets today! Seating is very limited in this historic venue.

This concert was made possible by a grant from Tucson Local 33, Amercian Federation of Musicians.
