The Pilgrims of Deep Run — New York Irish Center
The Baltimore-based Irish band dedicated to lively and spirited performances sure to make you get up and stomp your feet. Formed as the 2020 quarantine was beginning to lift, they came together through a shared passion for traditional Irish music, storytelling, and a need for human connection. Inspired by legendary acts such as The Irish Rovers, The New Barleycorn, and The Dubliners, their shows capture the joy, humor, and camaraderie of a true session — music to laugh, dance, sing, and drink to. Members seamlessly switch between voice, fiddle, mandolin, guitar, banjo, bodhrán, bouzouki, and Irish whistle, keeping arrangements fresh while honoring the roots of the music. Their performances create a shared experience — with call-and-response choruses and foot-stomping rhythms that pull every person in the room into the circle.

Wherever else I feel myself to be a stranger, I will remember I have a home in Belfast”—FREDERICK DOUGLASS In 1845, only seven years after escaping slavery, the abolitionist Frederick Douglass journeyed across the Atlantic to Ireland, where, in Belfast, he felt so welcomed that he declared of the city: “Wherever else I feel myself to be a stranger, I will remember I have a home.” Inspired by Douglass’s historic visit and galvanized by racial tensions in the aftermath of Brexit, the celebrated Belfast-based artist and DJ Kwame Daniels set out to create an artistic production that would bring the people of Belfast closer to Black cultures. His North Star, a flagship project of Belfast 2024, the city’s largest cultural program to date, melds music—jazz, gospel, classical, hip-hop and electronic—with spoken word and storytelling for a large-scale, immersive theatrical experience featuring artists and young people from the community responding to the question: What makes a place home to new people, to new ideas? This is a show about belonging like nothing you’ve ever seen. Join us.
