Celtic Thunder, the hit Irish and Scottish male pop vocal group that has been dazzling audiences worldwide, makes is first Nashville appearance November 19 at TPAC's Andrew Jackson Hall.  The group debuted with a smash public television special in 2008, and returns this year with a new CD, DVD, PBS Special and nationwide tour called Celtic Thunder: Take Me Home.
