Canadian Singer/Songwriter Alan Doyle To Appear At Capitol Center for the Arts This November

Canadian singer/songwriter/actor/author Alan Doyle will be appearing live in concert at the Capitol Center for the Arts (CCA) in Downtown Concord, NH on Sunday, November 11, 2018 at 7:30PM. He is best-known as the lead singer of folk rock band Great Big Sea. Opening for Mr. Doyle is Whitney Rose.

"I still think of myself as a person that has one job, a guy who plays in a band for a living, that's me," says Doyle. "If someone asks me to write songs, I guess I'm a songwriter too. If someone asks me to produce a record for them, then I guess I'm a record producer, too. I never looked for an acting job in my life-they come to me. Someone calls who needs a hairy, Irish-looking fellow to bully someone or play the lute, come throw at Colin Farrell, okay, sounds fun. It's a laugh."

"Books came to me the same way," he adds. "Random House said, we've been reading your blog, why not write a book, so I thought, 'OK!'" There's more to it than all of that, for certain, but Doyle parries it off, in his usual way. "I'm grateful to do all of it. It's a wonderful life and I'm very lucky to have it."

They may be ordered by calling the Capitol Center for the Arts at (603) 225-1111 or online at ccanh.com.
