Get Up Tuesday For Get Up Jack

Tuesday, July 10, marks the launch of the  Schroon Lake Arts Council's 2018 Boathouse  Concert  with the world famous Irish band "Get Up Jack"

From The Arts Council:

"Get Up Jack is a joyous, retro-romp by six of the most energetic and charismatic performers in Irish music today.  Their soaring vocals and enthusiastic performances have drawn comparisons to the old- school groups of their youth (like The Dubliners, The Clancy Brothers and The Wolfe Tones), yet it is their own unique instrumentation, style and delivery that makes them a one-of-a-kind experience".  

The tickets are  $20 and can be purchased through Brown Paper tickets or the Schroon Lake Arts Council website, by clicking here.
