Noon & Night Concert: Kitty Donohoe 12PM
601 Erie St.
Port Huron, MI 48060
Kitty Donohoe is an Ann Arbor-based singer/songwriter whose music blends Irish, Celtic, folk, and pop influences. She gained recognition for her song “There Are No Words,” written in response to 9/11, which earned her a Michigan Emmy. Kitty has opened for folk legends like Doc Watson, David Bromberg, Bruce Cockburn, and Cheryl Wheeler, and her songs have been covered by artists including Paul Stookey of Peter, Paul & Mary.
A longtime performer, Kitty paused touring in the late 1980s to focus on family, but now plays festivals and clubs across the U.S. and Canada. In 2008, she performed just before Bruce Springsteen at a rally for then-presidential candidate Barack Obama. Her music often celebrates Michigan, especially in her album Bunyan and Banjoes, featuring songs like “Michigan Waltz,” “Great Lakes Lights,” and “Michigan Gals.”
Concert times are at noon and 7 PM in the Fine Arts Theatre.
