Halloween, and I'm in Kilnamona, outside Ennis. We were over in Castleisland for the Padraig O'Keeffe festival last weekend. This festival has been going on for quite a few years now, and we were invited 3 years ago, to sing in the concert, and also the singing session. And we've been invited back ever since.Padraig O'Keeffe died in 1963 but it took 30 years for his name and his beloved music

I know, I know - it's been too long since I wrote a blog.......never have the time really - but had to write about last night's gig in Whelans with the pupils and past pupils of the Ballyfermot College - it was a wonderful night of music - each act played about 20 minutes and I was left crying for more! The night started off with first and second years, including the two sisters, Danny from

Ah Italy, how I love this country! Flying into Rome was exciting, viewing the Coliseum from the air. Unfortunately there were heavy downpours with thunder and lightening but we were driving south to Latina, where the sun was shining. We arrived just in time for the sound check. It was an interesting double gig with the band FolkRoad, based in Latina. It was difficult as it was open air in one of

The World Bodhran Championships!!! I had been quite amused to be invited to this wonderful festival - but the organisers had wanted to bring more musicians and singers into the town, and it was a great idea. Unfortunately time constraints made it impossible for me to be at the whole festival but I managed to arrive just in time to hear the final part of the final, with my neighbours and fellow

As I had my birthday in Copenhagen, I felt left out at home, so when I came home from Denmark, myself and my two girlfriends decided to attend the Dame Tavern tuesday session, and sing our hearts out.......none of the students had ever heard us, and as it happened it was such a noisy night that it was hard to hear anything. However word had gone around, and it was an amazing night, with past

I've been home quite a while since Denmark, but didn't get an opportunity to write anything about it. Denmark is a wonderful country. I hadn't been on tour here for years, owing to the fact that I now perform in a duo and not in a full band, as I did with the Loose Connections. Initially it was really cold.......our first concert was on the day we arrived, and actually I don't remember much

In the heady set-dancing year of 1988, I accompanied the Brooks Academy Set Dancers to Paris to teach the Paris Set to members of the Association Irelandais – now 20 years later, I’m back with them, but this time to do workshops in singing. It was really lovely to catch up on old friends, as I had been out of touch with the set dancers for years (and extremely unfit). We were free during the

What a lovely weekend in St. Puy, France. Hosted by Ken Eaton, myself and Graham were treated royally. Arriving in Biarritz on Friday, we were picked up by Ken and his friend Angela, who brought us back to St. Puy, stopping for lunch on the way in a most beautiful restaurant, where we had to have duck! We had a relatively quiet night in Ken's wonderful house on Friday. But I was quite ill

The Best Weekend in the World! Ennis trad fest was just brilliant. Thursday night's concert was 'At First Light' with Donal O'Connor and John McSherry, Ruben Bada, Alan Burke and Francie McIlduff. Brilliant music and an excellent gig despite being at midnight when all revellers were fairly nicely. I was blown away by the music and the performance in general. The album has not left my CD

Castleisland What a great weekend. Castleisland hosts the Padraig O'Keeffe Memorial Festival every Halloween - it's been going about 14 years. We arrived and checked in to the Hotel. We went straight for dinner as we were starving. Unfortunately I accidently said whisky when I meant to say Water afterwards and that was the end of me for the night - apparently I had a brilliant night though

Where to start! I didn't have an opportunity to write any thing while on the road. Unfortunately we had a rather rough start, as Hurricane Gordan swept into Ireland, all cross-channel boats were cancelled so we had to fly to Exeter to catch our first concert of the tour in The Plough Arts Centre in Torrington. It turned out to be a lovely concert despite the fact that I hate singing on the day

I know, I haven't had a chance to write for a long time, just too busy and didn't think about it. But we had a great trip to Holland, over to our good friends Liesbeth and Peter. We did a concert in The Trouble Tree folk club on the Friday night, which was really good and well attended, and in fact we have a DVD of it, which I haven't watched yet! Saturday saw us in a most beautiful cathedral

We had a wonderful long weekend in Italy. One concert was at the end of the weekend, but myself and Graham were able to have some down time in Savona with our friends Giuilia and Michel, and we ate like kings and talked and laughed and listened to music. But the concert was really wonderful. We drove down to Brescia and were joined by the Fabio Vernizzi trio. The concert was set in an old

What a lovely long weekend!We set off on Wednesday, but had to do another thing in Bristol the following day so we got the train there, had a relaxing evening and did our 'thing' the following morning. By lunchtime though we were in Exeter being picked up by the very wonderful Jenny who got us sorted very quickly and without any hassle. Our big gig was that evening, so we sound-checked late as we

Fermo, ItalyJust a quick note to say how impressed we were with the new lineup of The Birkintree at their concert in Fermo last week. We flew over for the day - via Stansted, to Ancona, and were driven the hour journey to Fermo - and we flew home the next day! But it was well worth all the travelling.Myself and Graham have been doing concerts with The Birkintree www.birkintree.com for about 6

Just before we left Milltown Malbay, we heard the shocking news of the death of Michael O’Domhnaill at the young age of 54. As soon as we heard the news, we played Casadh an tSugán and cried. He is such a huge loss – not only to his family, Maighread, Triona and Conal, and his close friends, and he had a lot of close friends, but he is a huge loss to the traditional music scene. Michael was a

MILLTOWN MALBAYI’ve been going to Milltown Malbay all my life because my mother is from down the road. I didn’t start going to the Willie Clancy week until 1984 (I think!) because during my late teens and early twenties I tended not to go on holiday with my parents. But after re-discovering traditional music in the early ‘80s I went down to the ‘Willie’ week for a weekend, and adored the

I was at the Four Fools Festival last weekend in Preston, UK. It was really a lovely weekend. The entire festival was held in a school which is a great idea. It meant that people could camp or caravan in the grounds, and it was very easy to walk from one venue to another. I arrived Friday night for the two opening concerts, one in the Library and one in the Music Room. I brought Graham with me

18th of JuneToday is the 191st Anniversary of the Battle of Waterloo. I have been meaning to learn the song - the Eighteenth of June - but only ever get as far as the chorus:"And what a sad heart had poor Boney, for to take up instead of his crownand to canter from Brussels to Paris, lamenting the eighteenth of June." This song is on Frank Harte's 'My Name is Napoleon Bonaparte' CD - which is one

Well - we had a great night in the Cobblestone on Friday night.  Graham and myself had been at the RTE Radio studios earlier in the day, to sing a song and have a chat with Pat Kenny.   I chose to sing Boys of Barr na Sraide - partly because I'm so comfortable with that song and life radio is nerve-racking at that hour of the morning, before the voice is fully awake - and partly in

We've just arrived back from Bilbao. It was a really lovely trip. Theconcert in the Euskaldi Theatre was just great. It's a magnificant venue,designed to look like a ship being built. It's our second time playingthere, and the audience were great - luckily many of them could understandme!We were invited to do a radio program with the Basque radio station - RadioEuskadi, - the name of the

ITALY   I didn't bring my lap top to Italy because it was a short trip.  It was really lovely to be in warm weather, though the Italians thought it still winter!  We played a lovely concert in a 16th Century church with the band The Birkintree.  Pietra Ligure, Auditorium Piazza   It was a lovely night of great music, followed by the customary pizza.  We had another lovely concert in Verona

Our great friends, Pat and Kate, greeted us like long lost cousins. They have a beautiful house on the north side of the city, and we always stay with them when in Seattle. Actually Seattle is my favourite city - and not because it rains a lot - but because there's an atmosphere there, a kind of live and let live feeling to the place. I've always had a lovely time there. We were tired that

We had a great night in Cupertino. The day started with a lovely lie-in, as we didn't have far to travel. Gloria offered to take me for a 'birthday meal' before Cupertino - it was a really fantastic meal - Graham and Gloria celebrated my birthday by drinking Champagne - of course I coudln't drink any, owing to my strict non-alcohol rule before a concert - I only ever broke it once - but that

Well, here we are in lovely San Jose - where the rain is coming down in torrents and it's unusually cold. Ah lovely Irish weather, and we've noticed the green hills in California - nearly but not quite as green as Ireland, especially for Paddy's Day. We picked up a wonderful car in San Franciso - a metallic blue PT Cruiser, it's so cool and retro, even Graham wants to own it.We had a lovely

Well - I does'nt feel like St. Paddy's Day - it's warm and sunny here in San Diego - Solana Beach to be exact. Arrived yesterday from Washington DC where it had just got cold again.Last I wrote I was in Pittsburgh - and then we drove down to Sellersville, just near Philly. The concert there was in a beautiful old building (about 1850s) which was originally the stables for the nearby buildings

8th March 2006It�s International Women�s Day � which started in 1917 in Russia! And today myself and Graham are in Pittsburgh, PA. The weather is fine � at least it�s not snowing and not too cold either. We started in Chicago and had a concert in the World Folk Music Company and had a really lovely night. We did a long drive then up to Scottville in Michigan, which is very close to Lake
