Benefit for the PAC features Irish music Doktor Kaboom brings science, fun
ASTORIA — “A bold sound
from New England,” “an
Irish music phenomenon in
America,” and “pure exhilara-
tion for the ears” are a few of
the comments from recent re-
views of the The Press Gang,
a traditional Irish band from
Portland, Maine, that will
perform at 7 p.m. Friday, Feb.
10, at the Clatsop Community
College Performing Arts Cen-
ter, located at 588 16th St.
The Press Gang fuses the
talents of squeezebox player
Christian “Junior” Stevens,
fiddler Alden Robinson,
flute-player and vocalist Hanz
Araki, and guitarist Owen
Marshall into a musical part-
nership. The quartet blends
their skill in traditional Irish
music with their aptitude for
other styles. The joy that these
musicians pour into playing
music together is infectious.
The result is a sound at once
energetic and sensitive, inno-
vative and reverent.
