Bound for West Cork

I'm just about to embark on my annual musical pilgrimage to West Cork. There's a hectic programme of performing and sessions for the next month. I'm doing solo gigs and performing with 2 groups coming over from England and 2 Irish groups.


'Gawkey' - me with Matt and Lorna Morton

A couple of dates are unconfirmed but the bookings are as follows:
July 30 Fitzpatrick's, Kilcrohane - solo
Aug 1 Fastnet Inn, Goleen - Gawkey
Aug 2 Fitzpatrick's, Kilcrohane - Gawkey
Aug 6 Fitzpatrick's, Kilcrohane - solo
Aug 8 Fastnet Inn, Goleen - Goleen Rovers
Aug 10 Myross Wood Fete near Leap - Take the Floor
Aug 13 Fitzpatrick's, Kilcrohane - solo
Aug 15 Fastnet Inn, Goleen - Quarries
Aug 16 Fitzpatrick's, Kilcrohane - Quarries
Aug 17 Goleen Festival - Goleen Rovers
Aug 20 Fitzpatrick's, Kilcrohane - solo
Aug 22 O'Mearas, Goleen - Goleen Rovers
We always get a really warm welcome from Eileen at Fitzpatricks and the audience made up of locals and holiday makers.
There are plenty of mixed music sessions in Goleen and Bantry and a particularly good traditional session at Ballydehob.
