Great Big Sea’s Alan Doyle plays Clearwater this month

We wish that Great Big Sea was still together, but at least Alan Doyle and his former bandmates are still friendly with each other, and musically active, no less.

Doyle—after an opening set from The Push Stars’ Chris Trapper—will finally fulfill a long-postponed date in downtown Clearwater from 2020, in which he will perform Celtic-Americana-folk hybrid songs, and promote his new live album, Here, Tonight, due March 11. It’s a digital release only, so don’t expect to see any vinyl pressings on the merchandise table next Thursday.

Tickets to see Alan Doyle play  Bilheimer Capitol Theatre in Clearwater on Thursday, March 9 are still available and start at $25.
