The name evokes a tempestuous clan of freckled redheads taking no prisoners as they blast through a set of fiddle-driven pub rock in the heart of a Celtic village, but, in reality, Gaelic Storm is a group of friends who met in Santa Monica, California, and made it big after appearing as the steerage band in James Cameron’s box office smash Titanic. The seriously talented group currently tours its modern Irish-Scottish tunes around the world, playing more than 100 gigs annually, and reveals its sense of humor on album titles such as Herding Cats, Bring Yer Wellies and Cabbage.
Sunday 9/13. $18-23, 8pm. The Jefferson Theater, 110 E. Main St., Downtown Mall. 245-4980.
