Award-winning Irish-Kiwi guitarist/composer Dave Flynn returns to New Zealand with an exciting expansion of his acclaimed show Celtic Guitar Journey.

In Kauaeranga Music’s first 2025 concert in the Kauaeranga Hall, Dave Flynn’s Celtic guitar style has a new dimension to it, with the inclusion of exhilarating, percussive sounds of Flamenco.

Connections between Irish and Spanish music come alive in the Rumba Reel, while Galician and Irish jigs dance in unison. New arrangements of music from Brittany (France) and Cape Breton (Canada) further his explorations of global Celtic culture.

Dave promises a vibrant mix of new compositions and familiar favourites, including:
• The Irish haka ‘O’Neill’s March’, enlivened with a hint of Flamenco
• Intricate, soulful arrangements of O’Carolan’s baroque harp music
• The infectious energy of Celtic jigs and reels, spanning centuries of tradition.

With his virtuoso guitar playing and engaging storytelling, he brings new life to the rich tapestry and heritage of Celtic music.
