Michael Condron For Graeme Of Thrones and RIP

Riotous Game of Thrones parody Graeme of Thrones, Celtic punk band Bastard Bearded Irishmen, popular Talking Heads tribute Start Making Sense, bluegrass band Dustbowl Revival and Billy Joel tribute The Stranger the new shows announced for the ArtsQuest Center at SteelStacks. Tickets for the shows are on sale at www.steelstacks.org and 610-332-3378.

On March 22, 7:30 p.m., the Musikfest Café Presented by Yuengling is pleased to present Graeme of Thrones. Straight from the imaginations of avid Game of Thrones fans and direct from sold-out shows in Australia and London’s West End, Graeme of Thrones is a critically-acclaimed theatrical journey through the Seven Kingdoms featuring unauthorized spoofs of all your favorite characters from the show. Graeme of Thrones is a wacky and wicked parody that the show’s super fans, as well as fantasy and comedy nerds, are sure to love.

On March 3, 7:30 p.m., Pittsburgh-based Bastard Bearded Irishmen take the Musikfest Café stage with an original and ferocious blend of traditional and contemporary Celtic music, mixed with punk and high-energy rock ’n’ roll. The group has opened for The Dropkick Murphys and Stiff Little Fingers; played with Gogol Bordello, Reel Big Fish and Rusted Root; as well as rocked Musikfest and Celtic Classic in Bethlehem. With shows that are a nonstop barrage of party anthems and dancing tunes, this is a can’t miss group.

The Dustbowl Revival, a California-based roots collective, comes to the Fowler Blast Furnace Room Feb. 11, 7:30 p.m. Merging old school bluegrass, gospel, jug-band, swamp blues and the hot swing of the 1930s, the group is known for its inspired live sets which boldly bring together many styles of traditional American music.
