OXFORD — Irish-American folk singer John Dady will return to 6 On The Square in Oxford at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, March 23. The doors will open at 6:30 p.m.
According to a media release, Dady has been singing his way into the hearts of his audiences since the 1970s, when he and his brother, Joe, recorded their first album as The Dady Brothers. Many more albums followed, along with thousands of live performances. They shared their music throughout the Eastern United States and across Ireland. In 2020, The Dady Brothers were inducted into the Rochester Music Hall of Fame.
Since Joe Dady’s untimely death in 2019, John performs solo or with an array of musician friends.
Accompanying himself on upside-down, left-handed guitar and ukulele, Dady’s repertoire includes original compositions, Irish and American folk songs, popular tunes from the Big Band era to The Beatles and The Band. He tailors each performance to foster a personal connection with his audience, a hallmark of every show.
At Saturday’s show, Dady will be accompanied by musician John Michael Ryan on pennywhistle and button accordion.
Tickets are $18 in advance and will be $23 at the door. They may be purchased online at 6onthesquare.org or call 607-843-6876 to make a reservation.
The show also will be streamed live online for $10 with more information provided at 6onthesquare.org.
