Following the success of our Irish Hooley in Bloomsbury at the Bloomsbury Theatre last summer, we are doing it again this year.
On Tuesday 28 June, 2016, there will be a great gathering of some of the finest exponents of Irish music, song and dance in London in the elegant surrounds of the Islington Assembly Hall, Upper Street, London N1 2UD. This is the second fundraiser and taster event of 2016 for the staging of the 18th Return to Camden Town Festival, which will take place from 25 to 31 October 2016. (more…)

Christy Moore’s new studio album Lily will be released worldwide on 20 May 2016.

Featuring ten songs, the Declan Sinnott produced album is the first new music from Christy since ‘Where I Come From’ in 2013.  The title track tells us of Christy’s early memories of County Kildare, and the album takes us on a journey across the water and back home with songs from Christy, Peter Gabriel and local heroes; John Spillane and Declan O’Rourke.  Christy says, “This collection has been a joy to record. We worked at different locations over the past two years and now it’s time to let it off upon the air.”
