With their signature blend of classic tradition and modern edge, The Rocky Road Tour promises to be a vibrant showcase of Irish culture, energy, and musicality. \n\nFollowing a record-breaking 2024 \u2013 including a sold-out world tour, a feature on Disney\u2019s critically acclaimed Only Murders in The Building, and over 5 million weekly streams \u2013 the band are showing no signs of slowing down. Their momentum continued in 2025 with a string of sold-out U.S. tour dates.\n\nBut it was their inclusion on the soundtrack of Sinners, starring Michael B. Jordan and directed by Ryan Coogler, that marked a defining moment in their global recognition. The film\u2019s soundtrack, already topping international streaming charts, was curated by Oscar- and Grammy-winning composer Ludwig G\u00f6ransson, a long-time admirer of The High Kings\u2019 distinctive vocal blend and musicianship. After attending their sold-out show at The Troubadour in Los Angeles earlier this year, G\u00f6ransson selected two tracks\u2014\u201cThe Rocky Road to Dublin\u201d and \u201cGo Lassie Go\u201d\u2014to feature prominently in the film\u2019s score.\n\nThe Rocky Road Tour 2026 will build on this global success, offering audiences a high-energy live show that reinforces The High Kings\u2019 place at the forefront of Irish folk. With a renewed focus on storytelling, musicianship, and connection, the tour reflects the group\u2019s ongoing commitment to honouring Ireland\u2019s folk legacy while pushing creative boundaries.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"146719-21899549@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/146719", "building_id":"", "building_name":"", "campus_maps_id":"", "room":"", "location_name":"ARK Reserved", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"See Site For Pricing Information", "tags":["Ark","Mutotix"], "website":"https:\/\/mutotix.umich.edu\/6502\/6503", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Michigan Union Ticket Office (MUTO)", "group_id":"1053", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21899549 } , "148197-21903292": { "datetime_modified":"20260508T161657", "datetime_start":"20260811T080000", "datetime_end":"20260811T163000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-08-11", "date_end":"2026-08-11", "time_start":"08:00:00", "time_end":"16:30:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Celebrating Pride Month", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Celebrating Pride Month", "event_subtitle":"", "event_type":"Exhibition", "event_type_id":"7", "description":"We are thrilled to announce that Pride Month is being celebrated in the Hatcher Library!\u00a0See selected historical artifacts from the Joseph A.
