The Shasta County Deputy Sheriff's Association presents the folk-music duo, Men of Worth. The concert benefits the DARE Program, Toys for Tots, and other local youth organizations. In the spirit of the season, the performance will include a tale about Christmas with one of the songs in Gaelic.
In 1986, Scotsman Donnie Macdonald and Irishman James Keigher came together through the Celtic music scene in Southern California to perform Irish and Scottish folk music, combining traditional and contemporary styles. Within a couple of years a partnership developed that was simultaneously serious and fun. The name "Men of Worth" was chosen from the title of a folk song written by the Scottish singer/songwriter Archie Fisher.
Together Men of Worth blend their voices with harmony and support their collection of songs with their varied selection of instruments. They have a very simple approach to their presentation, and in keeping with tradition, remain true to the music and story. Their show is a unique combination of humour, exciting tunes, and soulful, heartfelt ballads.
Men of Worth are an international act, and have earned much respect and success in two decades of touring. Performing concerts, festivals, and having recorded seven albums, Men of Worth continue the very tradition from which they evolved. Geographical changes now find James and Donnie living in Southern Oregon and Northern California respectively. Whilst remaining true to their Gaelic roots, Men of Worth have successfully evolved as entertainers. Success breeds success, and a natural progression toward education and travel has sealed the next decade as an exciting and pioneering era for the versatile duo. Cultural presentations in Schools have received rave reviews by students and teachers alike.
