Irish-language songs and dynamic twin-fiddling\, the hallmarks of Altan’s sound\, framework the band’s newest album\, aptly titled Donegal. The album’s 10 tracks pay homage to Donegal’s rich musical heritage\, breathtaking landscapes\, and vibrant culture. The authenticity and allure of the music transports listeners to a bygone time in rural Ireland while simultaneously forging a connection between the past and modern times.\n Bandleader\, lead vocalist and fiddler Mairéad Ní Mhaonaigh is in fine form\, lending her angelic voice to “Liostáil mé le Sáirsint” and “The Barley and the Rye” and contributing “Port Árainn Mhór/Port Kitty Rua Mooney\,” an outstanding set of jigs\, to the project. Altan’s newest member\, Clare Friel\, shares vocal duties with Ní Mhaonaigh\, most notably on the track “Faoiseamh a Geheobhadsa” and adds her fiery twin fiddle playing to great effect. Accordionist Martin Tourish brings his formidable chops and compositional sense to the medley “The House of Baoithín” which pays homage to the mid 6th century Saint Baoithín. Dáithí Sproule (guitar)\, Mark Kelly (guitar\, harmony vocals) and Ciarán Curran (bouzouki\, mandolin) round out the band which is augmented by special guests Jim Higgins (percussion)\, Steve Cooney (bass) and Graham Henderson (keyboards) on select tracks. \n Recorded by Manus Lunny at Stiúidió na Mara (“Seafront Studio”) in County Donegal\, Donegal captures the essence of the region which has inspired Altan since the band’s inception and further cements Altan’s legacy as one of the great cultural treasures of Ireland. \n No trad Irish band in the last thirty years has had a wider impact on audiences throughout the world than Altan. Formed in County Donegal in 1987 by lead vocalist Mairéad Ní Mhaonaigh and her late husband Frankie Kennedy\, the group’s music is influenced by traditional Irish language songs and tunes from Donegal. Over the course of their career\, Altan has sold over a million records. \n Nashville\, TN (March 1\, 2024) – Traditional Irish music titans Altan release their new album DONEGAL today.

SUMMARY:Christmas at Eagles Flying
DESCRIPTION:Eagles Flying in Ballymote have announced that they are opening throughout December 2025! \nNestled in the green hills of South Sligo\, Ireland’s largest sanctuary for Raptors and Owls is the Irish Raptor Research Centre / Eagles Flying. \nIt is situated on more than 27 hectares of mature parklands near Ballymote. Currently it is the home of many different species of eagles\, hawks\, owls\, falcons and vultures. There are also many different species of other birds and animals such as deer\, skunk and foxes. \nThe Irish Raptor Research Centre was established in 1999 as an institution for research on birds of prey and in 2003 parts of the area were opened to the public. Now Eagles Flying is one of the major tourist attractions in Ireland\, attracting tens of thousands of visitors annually to see the spectacular interactive bird shows with eagles\, hawks\, falcons\, vultures and owls. \nAmongst many other awards\, Eagles Flying has been awarded the Cerryificate of Excellence by Tripadvisor many times and then for eight years in a row the Travellers Choice Award by Tripadvisor. \nThere are shows twice daily led by specialists who give information about the biology of these magnificent creatures. During these entertaining interactive bird shows visitors can experience different types of raptors flying right over their head or landing next to them. \nSome have a wingspan of up to 3 metres. It is also possible to touch some of them and some members of the audience may even have one flying to their own hand. Eagles Flying staff developed a very special\, friendly way of working with raptors and other animals and there is no risk whatsoever for any member of the audience. \nThese shows are unique – you have never been that close to raptors! Even rain can not spoil this experience\, as shows can be presented indoors. \nDuring the shows\, starting at 11 am and 3 pm every day and lasting for approximately one hour\, the birds are presented in their natural environment. Before and after the shows\, the visitors can walk the park lands and enjoy the birds displayed in aviaries. Staff will give information on the birds and answer questions. \nPetting-Zoo\nFor the ones who prefer it more cuddly\, there is also a large supervised Petting-Zoo\, see Cuddle our Pet Animals. Here\, visitors can get hands-on with guinea-pigs\, pigs\, rabbits\, lambs\, goats\, donkeys\, ferrets\, and many more. \nCHRISTMAS AT EAGLES FLYING: \nIMPORTANT: The opening times are 3.30pm to 5.30 p.m. (Petting Zoo and Birds on the hand only). \nNo pre-booking\, please\, just pay on the day. \nPlease consider:\nMinders please do not leave children unattended.\nPets are not allowed into the sanctuary.

SUMMARY:PJ Murrihy & Seamus Shannon
DESCRIPTION:PJ Murrihy is an Irish singer-songwriter from Mullagh in County Clare. He has penned many hits and songs that have been recorded by some of Ireland’s leading entertainers while also digging up old gems like “Pat Murphy’s Meadow”. As a youngster Murrihy learned songs from family members\, including his mother and two of his uncles. He started playing music professionally with Michael Sexton Senior\, Jimmy Ward and David Culligan and then went on to create his own group that was very much in demand called “The Bannerman”. \nDue to his growing popularity\, he was asked to play and record two albums with the infamous Kilfenora Ceili Band. In later years he teamed up with accordionist\, Seamus Shannon\, and they have been performing their own specialized Irish traditional and country songs. \nSeamus Shannon hails from Elphin\, Roscommon and is a world renowned accordion player. Seamus is also host of a very popular radio program called “Shannon’s Corner” on Shannonside Northern Sound Radio where he plays a mix of traditional\, folk\, country and Irish music with special guests joining on the airwaves. Shannon’s Corner is a long established show that has gone from strength to strength over the years and continues to draw listeners from near and far. \nThe concert takes place on Saturday\, 23rd November at 8 pm in The Coleman Music Centre\, Gurteen\, Co. Sligo\, F56 TF88.  As this was a sell-out show last time round early booking is advisable. Tickets: €20. Call: 071 9182599 or online at www.colemanirishmusic.com

SUMMARY:Mary Coughlan 40th Anniversary Tour
DESCRIPTION:Its hard to believe that 4 decades have passed since Mary Coughlan went into the studio to record her debut album ‘Tired and Emotional’.\nThat album led to appearances on The Late Late Show\, a hit single with ‘Delaney’s Gone Back On The Wine’\, and led to Mary establishing her position as the First Lady of Jazz and Blues in Ireland. \nHeavily inspired by Billie Holiday and Bessie Smith she also embraces rock\, folk\, and chanson (Edith Piaf) influences in her work. \nDon’t miss this opportunity to join this iconic singer in celebrating 40 years of the most uncompromising\, wholly personal\, and universal music by any Irish artist. \nUncut – “Mary is a living link between Billie Holliday and Amy Winehouse.” \nBlues in the South – “A wonderful example of a jazz-based album. Sometimes called a new Billie Holliday\, but she is better than that. She turns her stunning voice to anything\, not a duff track here.” \nAudiofileman.com – “This new album is beautifully mastered & bathes in a delicate wash of space & air that tracks reverb from the vocal all the way down to cymbal taps. Coughlan has a voice chiselled by years of experiences & she’s now telling her story. Her lyrics are delivered with great weight and a knowledge of what goes on out there.” \nGet Ready To Rock – “‘Life Stories’ is a reaffirmation of what fans already know is a special talent. ****” \nBlues Blues.co.uk – “Life Stories is storytelling at its best and she makes you believe that you are listening to her life stories”. \nRhthym & Booze – “Coughlin delivers a stirring\, compelling and brutally honest album full of addictive highs and heart-wrenching lows.” \nMusic Republic – 5/5***** “One listen to her stunning new album & it’d be obvious to a deaf man that her effortless vocal ability is a rare gift & she can more than back up the accolades & reward the adulation.” \nMusicriot.com – 5/5*****““Life Stories” is one of the best albums I’ve heard this year. It’s a journey from pessimism to optimism with occasional flashbacks and doesn’t ignore the fact that even the most horrific journeys can have their humorous twists and turns. It’s a fine set of musicians creating settings that make these twelve diamonds sparkle.” \nVelvet Thunder – “To hear her sing is truly to be at the core of the human heart”.

SUMMARY:Outrage
DESCRIPTION:‘War makes heroes and demons doesn’t it\, so how could war in Ireland be any different?’\nTold through the prism of two sisters OUTRAGE is a play that explores the true nature of women’s role in the Irish revolutionary wars and in particular the effect of Civil War on women’s mind\, body and soul. \nAlice and Nell play key roles in arming revolutionaries\, organising civic resistance and in particular the propaganda war. They are fervent\, they are funny\, they are human and they\, like everyone else in Ireland become deeply conflicted as the country spins toward a shattering Civil clash that split the nation and continues to haunt Irish politics\, society and culture to this day. \nOUTRAGE challenges the historical narrative we have all grown up with. \nOUTRAGE is written out of the true testimony of women we have never heard of. \nOUTRAGE is a theatrical hurricane of emotion\, empathy\, action and truth. \nOUTRAGE is produced by Fishamble: The New Play Company. It was presented in partnership with Dublin Port Company\, and Meath County Council\, during St Patrick’s Festival 2022\, as part of the Department of Tourism\, Culture\, Arts\, Gaeltacht\, Sport and Media’s Decade of Centenaries programme. Fishamble is delighted to revive this highly acclaimed production on national tour\, to audiences throughout the country\, with support of an Arts Council Touring grant. \nCast: \nNaoise Dunbar\nCaitriona Ennis\nMary Murray \nDuration: 80 minutes\, no interval. \nAge guidance: 14+ \nContent Warning: Includes depiction of violent sexual assault. \nIf you have been affected by the themes of this play\, please see the Dublin Rape Crisis Centre website for resources.

SUMMARY:Niall McCabe
DESCRIPTION:With self-effacing humour and stories told of growing up on a remote Irish Island Niall McCabe possess an effortless charm which both captivates and liberates his audience\, from Dublin’s intimate venues to grand stages across the UK and the Atlantic\, most recently appearing at Celtic Connections and Americana Fest UK in January 2024.\nLike the wild Atlantic landscape of his home McCabe’s songs feel timeless and natural yet bely the dense shaping of a dynamic creative force. Deft\, intricate guitar work brings a lightness to the weight of Island isolation yet the sound\, soul and stories of McCabe’s life and experiences breathe a deep cultured sense of discernment through his vocals. \nHis natural distinct voice is earning him a growing loyal fan base\, discovering his music as he travels extensively\, with his recent album tour schedule bringing him to venture off the Island\, across Ireland\, UK\, Europe and North America. \nAs well as becoming an accomplished finger-style guitar player\, Niall has been lending his unique voice to Irish trad-fusion band ‘Beoga’\,touring Ireland\, Europe and the USA while also playing support for Ed Sheeran\, Foy Vance and Johnny Swim. \nIn 2023\, a breakthrough year\, Niall’s Irish Tour triumphed with sold-out shows in iconic venues like Whelan’s Dublin and the Ruby Room in Galway. The UK leg in November marked his solo debut in cities such as London and Liverpool\, leaving audiences spellbound. \nThe crescendo continued as Niall opened for Chris Isaak on 3k+ cap sold-out UK shows at the London Eventim Apollo and Wolverhampton Civic Halls. \nSolidifying his global presence\, Niall opened for Sharon Shannon twice in 2023\, impressing diverse audiences in Dublin and the New York City Winery\, and he also delivered a captivating performance at the prestigious 2023 Americana Festival in Nashville. \nMcCabe’s eagerly anticipated ‘Rituals’ album was released in February 2023 to critical acclaim and featured as RTE Album of the Week\, while the song Rituals topped the RTE Radio airplay charts for five consecutive weeks. \nAnticipation mounts for new releases in the summer of 2024\, promising an exciting chapter in his musical narrative. \n“A Sentimental Soulful Debut” – HOTPRESS Magazine \n“…the weight of personal experience and reflection makes it a masterpiece\, in the true sense of the word” – Irish Music Magazine \n“…an incredibly talented singer-songwriter and his song ‘Stonemason’ is one of the best I’ve ever heard” – Miriam O’Callaghan (RTE Radio 1)

SUMMARY:The Mulcahy Family
DESCRIPTION:The Mulcahy Family live in concert in the Coleman Music Centre\, Gurteen\, Co Sligo F56 TF88 on Saturday\, 9th November at 8pm. \nTickets €15. To book call:071 9182599 or book online at www.colemanirishmusic.com \nWhen the Mulcahy Family\, of Abbeyfeale\, West Limerick are involved the music is never ordinary and always close to the heart. That is the hallmark of the Mulcahy Family\, as the simplicity of the tunes takes on a new life when blended together with technique and familiarity all wrapped together in honesty and respect for the tradition. \nThat respect flows from the Mick Mulcahy\, 63\, originally from Brosna\, Co. Kerry where proximity to Sliabh Luachra and Co. Clare assured a firm foundation for the music. A member of the senior All-Ireland Brosna Ceili Band who won the gold in Listowel in 1972\, he is a devoted musician all his life seeking out the best sessions and musicians. \nExposure to the likes of trad icons Willie Clancy and Seamus Ennis at August bank holiday weekends in Miltown Malbay set the tone and bar very high in the 1950s and 1960s for traditional music and on Mulcahy’s own development. When he and his wife\, Cecelia\, settled in Abbeyfeale to raise their family consisting of daughters Louise\, 26\, and Michelle\, 24\, it was clear that Irish music would be the family passion and cultural sustenance. \nAs infants\, the girls were regular visitors to the annual Willie Clancy Summer School and All-Ireland fleadhs\, later to be students and then teachers. \nTheir skill-sets on a variety of instruments provide for a tasteful layering on top of the tune that reveals their own sensitivity and natural flair for traditional music. Mostly self-taught\, Mick plays a variety of accordions\, concertina and melodeon\, Louise the tin-whistle\, uilleann pipes and primarily the concert flute while Michelle plays the harp\, concertina\, accordion\, fiddle and piano.
