The Map Room Celebrates 7 Years with Music Tonight

In a rare local performance, Andy M. Stewart and Friends will perform at the in Regent Square from 7 to 9 p.m. tonight.  

Today also marks the Map Room's seventh anniversary.

Born in Perthshire, Scotland, Stewart grew up in a family noted for its fine traditional singing. He first drew the attention of the music world with his work as lead singer and instrumentalist for Silly Wizard, with whom he toured until their break-up in 1988. Known for his wicked wit and sterling live performances, The Beacon Herald said Andy M. Stewart is among the finest singers in the Scots/Irish traditional genre, with a voice that "conveys more emotion in one line than most singers do in a lifetime."

Stewart will be joined by Pittsburgh favorite, Bruce Foley, as well as other local Irish and Celtic musicians.

There will be no cover charge, but donations are appreciated.
