From Castlebar - County Mayo - Moka Live
Continuing our regular presentation of some of Ireland's finest Singer/Songwriter talents, Moka Cafe Bar, Spencer Street, Castlebar proudly welcomes Andy Irvine to "MOKA LIVE". "Andy has been hailed as "a tradition in himself." Musician, singer and songwriter, Andy has maintained both personal integrity and highly individual performing skills throughout his 40-year career. From Sweeney's Men in the mid sixties to the enormous success of Planxty in the 70s, to THE Irish super group, Patrick Street, in the 80s, Andy has been a world music pioneer and icon for traditional music and musicians.
Irvine occupies a unique place in the musical world, plying his trade as archetypal troubadour, with a solo show and traveling lifestyle that reflects his lifelong influence, Woody Guthrie. Few others can equal his repertoire, Irish traditional songs, dexterous Balkan dance tunes, and a compelling canon of his own material that defies description". Performing Saturday 30th August - Doors from 9pm Tickets €18.00 available now directly from Moka. Adm Ticket Only (Limited Tickets Available!) - Doors Close 10pm For further details tel. 094 92 50180 or visit www.moka.ie email info@moka.ie
