As we figure out what the next Saltwater is going to look like, not to mention when it will be, there's lots of great music around, including Saltwater alums Enter the Haggis at Stone Mountain (11/25) and Karan Casey singing with supergroup Childsplay in Harwich Center, NYC, Portland, and Somerville (11/17 - 11/20). It's also always worth checking out what Phil McIntyre and New England Celtic Arts is up to.

Thank you Saltwater performers, sponsors, and friends. Thanks for the new Saltwater memories — the intimate acoustic music and camaraderie at Blue and Bull Feeney’s, piping demonstrations and great performances at One Longfellow Square, and Ozere, Prydein, and The Screaming Orphans taking no prisoners at Port City, the latter throwing caution to the wind and blowing way past curfew like the gals-on-a-mission that they are. It was one for the record books, and we can’t wait for next year!
