Where: Casapepe, Main St., Wicklow town.

Enjoy an Italian style meal to the music and dance of folk fusion band Oltremara. Check out restaurant menu here, phone Casapepe on (0404) 62050 to book a table.

Oltre...the Italian for beyond or over,           Mara.....the Irish for the sea.

Oltremara's vision is to introduce the Mediterranean's musical and folk heritage to a new audience and to create a cultural fusion of the traditional music, song and dance of Southern Italy and Ireland.
The 5 band members met in Ireland by chance and all of them come from different musical and dance backgrounds. Inspired by traditional dance and ancient folk tales, all of the band's songs reflect their cultural heritage while experimenting with new sounds to bring a fresh and exciting experience to their audience.
