By Brian McClure

This program will be at Senior Services, 08337 M-140, South Haven
1:00 p.m.
No Zoom for this program

Brian has performed professionally for over 17 years. His show consists of fiddle, guitar, vocals and bodhran drum. Enjoy a great variety of songs, from Celtic to American classics people know and love. What makes Brian stand out is his ability to connect with and energize the audience. One can expect a lively performance that will have you on the edge of your seat! Come to Senior Services to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with the Scott Club!

Hailing from La Porte, IN, Brian has extensive training in music. Middle and High School Orchestra and Choir started his journey. While at Purdue University in West Lafayette he was a part of the Varsity Glee Club, where he performed over 100 shows a year, mostly on the road. One show that stands out is performing in Carnegie Hall with the New York Pops Symphony. Towards the end of college Brian began learning the great genre of Irish music, thanks to the pub Nine Irish Brothers, where he was the fiddler with a few bands; Trooper Thorn, Whiskey Runners, and Highland Reign. Moving to Paw Paw, MI in 2020, Brian began performing his one-man-band show using a loop pedal. He figured out how to incorporate a full band sound even though performing solo. Brian looks forward to a great future performing in Ireland and Celtic Festivals across the country.

The South Haven Scott Club was organized in 1883 as a reading circle and has been providing cultural events to the community ever since then in its Michigan historic site. Located at the corner of Phoenix Road and Pearl Street in South Haven, Scott Club is a stately Queen Anne style building of sandstone capped by a cupola of carved oak. Two historic windows of Austrian stained glass frame our east and west walls and serve as a cultural icon to the east entrance to the city.
