Each member of the band plays multiple instruments, including wooden flute, accordion, tin whistle, five string banjo, cittern, bones and more. These instruments complement the lead vocal of Belfast native Richard McMullan and the band\u2019s tight blend of four part harmony.<\/p>\n<p>Blackthorn has played throughout the Great Lakes region since 1984. Based in Detroit, they can be found regularly at O\u2019Mara\u2019s Pub and Restaurant in Berkley. Other venues include concert halls, universities and festivals, including main stage appearances at the prestigious Michigan Irish Festival and world renowned Milwaukee Irish Fest.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>The concert begins at\u00a07pm.
