On March 14, 2026, Irish band Altan performed at Sellersville Theater in Sellersville, Pennsylvania. The lineup for the tour features Mairéad Ní Mhaonaigh on fiddle and vocals, Ciarán Curran on bouzouki, Mark Kelly on guitar, Máirtín Tourish on accordion, and Clare Friel on violin.

Throughout the show, it felt like the audience was in one of the band members’ living rooms, watching them play music and talk. They included the audience in conversations as well. They are HILARIOUS. We were all laughing at so many points, and at one point, audience members could hear band members laughing off stage.
