Live music by the quartette Irish Diplomacy at the Longfellow Irish pub Merlins Rest.
Irish Diplomacy play Merlin's Rest Pub on Saturday, October 17, starting at 7:30 PM. It's a live music night in the Longfellow neighborhood, and the band's name gives you a pretty good idea of what to expect.
If you haven't spent much time there, Merlin's Rest Pub is an Irish pub that keeps live music on the calendar almost every night. The bills run all over the place: open jams and traditional Irish sessions sit alongside blues, jazz, and folk, so it's the kind of spot where you're as likely to hear a session of old standards as you are a solo folk act or a full band. This particular night falls into the Irish side of that mix.
