Featured Performers

Introducing the Lads of Tallymoore as the Main Stage Featured Entertainment this year.

Lads Of Tallymoore

Coming to us from Wisconsin, Matt Voell has a passion for Celtic music. Through many attempts and determination he found a group of lads who shared his views and passion for bringing this music all together. Each one of the five performers brings his own unique style for a wonderful blend of voices. Performing the gamut from traditional ballads to foot stomping pub favorites, they are well on their way to be a definite crowd pleasers, and we welcome them back again this year as our “Featured Band” to the Buffalo MO Celtic Festival and Highland games. They certainly were a hit last year and we look forward to having them again entertain for us. Please place their picture from the Entertainment page on the Home page with this info.In honor of the 10th Anniversary of the Celtic Festival, we are featuring new performers to entertain you.
