Saturday April 24, 2010 Tuesday May 4, 2010 Sunday September 5, 2010- 7:00 pm Sessions at Conor O'Neill's in Ann Arbor
Our aim at Conor O’Neill’s is to bring to Ann Arbor a truly authentic traditional Irish Pub. To do so we had our pub designed and built in Ireland. The front of Conor O’Neill’s is the 'shop pub' with its timber floors and many shelves and drawers for the merchandise that would be sold. At the back is the cottage wall, where Publican would open his doors to friends and neighbors alike for cheerful hours of drinking, storytelling, conversations and music.

Singer-songwriter Dan Hicks is truly an American original. Since the early 1960s, Hicks has deftly blended elements of Swing, Jazz, Folk and Country music to create the appealing sound he sometimes calls "Folk Jazz."
The lyrics of his songs range from the simply sublime to the sublimely ridiculous, all presented with his uniquely skewed and inscrutable touch.
Dan's irresistible sense of rhythm, hip lyrical styling, laid-back vocalizing, and infamous on-stage wit will make most who listen fans for life. He's a snappy dresser, too.
