Legendary performer, singer Seán Ó Sé from Cork heads up an exciting Irish traditional concert tour of North America. The 2009 Tour visits 10 Canadian cities and offers audiences an opportunity to see Seán along with some of the best traditional musicians, singers and dancers drawn from the four provinces of Ireland. The concert consists of a fast-moving show that features authentic and exciting entertainment from the rich Irish traditional heritage.

The concert is once again presented by veteran singer from Cork, Seán Ó Sé. This is a very special year for Seán marking the Golden Jubilee of his singing career - he made his debut way back in 1959. His work with Seán Ó Riada in the early years made an enormous impact on audiences both in Ireland and abroad. Over the intervening years Seán's singing of new material such as The Wexford Medley and audience favourites Bhí Bean Uasal and An Poc ar Buile has continued to impact on audiences of all generations worldwide.

The complete itinerary for the Comhaltas concert tour, which takes place for two weeks in October and visits 10 Canadian venues is one being North Bay.
