Celtic Thunder just made an appearance at New York City's Beacon Theatre.

Backed by the amazing Celtic Thunder Band, the singers (Damian McGinty, Ryan Kelly, Michael O'Dwyer, Emmet Cahill & Neil Byrne) deliver new ensemble numbers including "Sons of Light," "Toora, Loora, Lay," "The Wild Rover," "Right all right," and "Castle on the Hill" followed in the second act by nostalgic fun songs like "Celebration," "I'm a Believer," "Seasons in the Sun" and "Rise Again." No Celtic Thunder show would be complete without an encore of their rousing anthem "Ireland's Call," the only song in Celtic Thunder X that isn't a new song but which never fails to bring the audience to its feet.

Celtic Thunder have sold over 3.4 million albums in the U.S., combined, toured the U.S. and Canada, coast to coast, 12 times and Australia four times performing almost 1,000 shows to date, selling well over 1 million tickets. Celtic Thunder has been hailed as Billboard's "Top World Music Artist," along with "Top World Music Imprint" and "Top World Album" of in 2008, 2009, 2011, 2015 and again in 2016.
