Coming off the success of their latest CD Take Me Home which debuted at #1 on Billboard's (US) Top World Album chart, the group hailed by the New York Times as "a Fab Five peddling Celtic stylings," Celtic Thunder is embarking on their highly anticipated second full fledged US tour which will stop at
the Fox Theatre in St. Louis on November 3 at 8 p.m. Tickets are on sale now and are $57.50, $47.50 & $37.50. Presented by KETC Channel 9 and Fox Concerts. 

The "Take Me Home Fall 2009 Tour," is an extensive trek across North America in support of their new Decca Records album. Take Me Home was recorded live at Toronto's Casino Rama and features the group's signature takes on hit songs including "Every Breath You Take" by The Police, the Josh Groban classic "You Raise Me Up," "500 Miles" by The Proclaimers, and many more. Celtic Thunder recently performed throughout the day at QVC's "Rose of Tralee" Irish celebration and as a result sold a record breaking 10,000 copies of a special collection, Celtic Thunder: Act Two CD and The Show DVD, both of which were released on Decca Records in 2008.

The phenomenon that is Celtic Thunder has achieved sales approaching 500,000 copies of their combined releases to date, and remain in the Top 10 of Billboard's Top World Albums a year after their #1 debut. On October 2nd this incredibly talented Irish and Scottish group staged a brand new
production for Public Television entitled Celtic Thunder "Storm" at the International Center in Toronto. The DVD from this show is scheduled for broadcast on the Public Television network in March 2010, alongside a new CD release of "Storm." Tickets for Celtic Thunder are on sale now at the Fox Theatre box office and all MetroTix locations.
