Dan Possumato and Friends

Dan has performed extensively throughout much of Ireland and Europe during his 15 years of living abroad. He has released two albums which have met with critical acclaim on both sides of the Atlantic. Ellen Cranitch, host of the weekly trad program Grace Notes on Radio Telefs Eireann (RT), Ireland’s public broadcasting service, described Dan as “a great accordion player.” Tracks from Dan’s albums have
been played in Ireland on radio stations such as RT, ClareFM, Raidi na Gaeltachta, and on many programs in the USA such as Thistle & Shamrock and Celtic Connections. Performances have included The New England Folk Festival, Alaska Folk Festival, Alaska Irish Festival, North Texas Irish Festival, Pittsburgh Irish Festival, Nrnberg Open Air Folk Festival and many others.
