MASS MoCA: A Moment with Liam Ó Maonlaí - Video
PUBLISHED:  Apr 28, 2016
DESCRIPTION:
As the front man of the legendary band Hothouse Flowers, the devastatingly charming singer-songwriter-raconteur-linguist Liam Ó Maonlaí has done as much as anyone to connect traditional Irish music with rock and roll. He took the 2014 FreshGrass festival by storm, singing half his solo set in Gaelic. And he came back for a very special St. Patrick’s Day show. Irish on tap.

We were lucky enough to share this sacred moment with Liam before his show. But we didn't want to keep it all to our selves.

So consider this our Thank You for coming to the the show last night, which museum director Joe Thompson insists is, "One of the best concerts I've ever seen here." And he's seen most of them.

MASS MoCA is one of the world's liveliest (and largest) centers for making and enjoying today's most important art, music, dance, theater, film, and video. Hundreds of works of visual and performing art have been created on its 19th-century factory campus during fabrication and rehearsal residencies, making MASS MoCA among the most productive sites in the country for the creation and presentation of new art. More platform than box, MASS MoCA strives to bring to its audiences art experiences that are fresh, engaging, and transformative.

MASS MoCA's galleries are open 11am to 5pm every day except Tuesdays. The Hall Art Foundation’s Anselm Kiefer reopens April 18, 2015. Gallery admission is $18 for adults, $16 for veterans and seniors, $12 for students, $8 for children 6 to 16, and free for children 5 and under. Members are admitted free year-round.
