Thank you, Era Alaska, once again for bringing a quality performance to Homer. Lunasa, claimed to be the “hottest Irish band on the planet” lands in Homer on Saturday, Feb. 8, for a performance at the Mariner Theatre, followed on Sunday with public workshops and an outreach performance at the Homer Senior Center. 

When HCOA found out about the band’s travel plans in Alaska, it was obvious that driving was not going to work. It is so hard for visitors to understand the distances and weather conditions we deal with (although the roads are certainly better here than in the Lower 48 these days). So we asked Era for help and once again they saved the day. Thank you, Era.

For information about Lunasa and the workshops call HCOA at 235-4288 or visit www.homerart.org.
