Mist glitter.

High-energy Celtic music by the renowned quartet Mithril can be heard for free in Gulf Shores on July 22.
That term evokes a beautiful scene of peacefulness, sometimes stirred by lively winds, but unbroken by human voices. In the fictional Elvish language of J.R.R. Tolkien’s world, it would be pronounced “mithril”—and a local group named Mithril succeeds at creating such a scenario through their music.
Lift your spirits with Mithril’s unique style of “Celtic Pops” on Thursday, July 22, as part of the free Gulf Shores Out & In concert series. You’ll hear Celtic/world music with influences of classical, Middle Eastern and American folk styles. The four talented members are fun to watch as they play a diverse range of instruments, and their classical training is evident in the group’s effortless precision.
Mithril’s upbeat show will begin at 7:00 p.m. indoors at the Erie Meyer Civic Center in Gulf Shores, corner of W. 19th Ave. and W. 2nd St.
Grab your family and some friends, and start the fun in the afternoon with a trip to the Gulf Shores Museum (free admission, open until 5:00 p.m.) to learn of the area’s history, including shrimping and hurricanes. Chat over a delicious dinner at any of the island’s restaurants or enjoy a picnic dinner in the park. Then spend the evening tappin’ your toes to live music.
“Free” is always a good thing, and so is the music of Mithril.
