The enchanting Irish
musical ensemble Celtic Woman is currently performing
across America on an expansive four-month concert tour

Celtic Woman will be in Omaha for one night only at the Orpheum Theater on Tuesday, June 11 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are priced at $39.00, $59.00, $99.00 and can be purchased only through Ticket Omaha by calling 402-345-0606, online at TicketOmaha.com, or at the Ticket Omaha box office located inside the Holland Center on 13th & Douglas streets (open Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturdays 12 to 5 p.m.).

"Enchanting, inviting, captivating" with "exquisitely blended voices," raved the Buffalo News in a recent concert review. "A tribute to a nation's legacy, a celebration of a people's pride."

Celtic Woman combines the talents of four gifted Irish women-vocalists Chloe Agnew, Lisa Lambe and Susan McFadden, and violinist Mairead Nesbitt-whose dazzling performances combine the sounds and sensibility of Irish traditional music with memorable original compositions and contemporary pop standards. Recently named Billboard Magazine's #1 World Music Artist, the members of Celtic Woman are excited to begin their 2013 tour, which boasts an electrifying new stage production and the return of such enduring fan favorites as "You Raise Me Up," "Orinoco Flow" and "Amazing Grace." Celtic Woman is backed by a full band, six-member choir, bag piper Anthony Byrne and championship Irish dancer Craig Ashurst.

Since its formation in 2004, Celtic Woman has emerged as both a spectacular commercial success and a global cultural phenomenon. The group's uplifting mix of timeless tradition and contemporary craft has transcended national and cultural borders to touch the hearts of a devoted international fan base,
