KC’s Elders Make Impression at Irish Festival
The Great American Irish Festival was on over the weekend in Utica, New York and in this report in the UticaOD Kansas City’s The Elders got singled out for making an impression.
Specifically singled out by a man wearing a Wallace tartan kilt that he ordered online from Scotland no less:
“I’ve been doing this for the last three years,” Farrell said about his festival attire. “I’m hot, but it’s been great weather, so you can’t complain.”
Farrell, 41, recalled one highlight of the weekend was listening to the sound of The Elders, a Kansas City-based group that’s known as the most popular Irish band throughout the Midwest.
The ultimate goal of the Great American Irish Festival, “given the rich Irish heritage in Central New York, is to establish and maintain a state of the art cultural center that will be regional in scope, exploring the history and importance of the Irish in Central New York”.
