"We are born at the rise of the curtain and we die with its fall, and every night in the presence of our patrons we write our new creation, and every night it is blotted out forever; and of what use is it to say to audience or to critic, 'Ah but you should have seen me last Tuesday?

Folk the Recession

Friday 18th May - The Venue Theatre, Ratoath, Co. Meath. Tel: 01 6895600

Saturday 19th May - The Source Arts Centre, Thurles. 0504 90204

Eleanor Shanley, Brendan Begley, Frankie Lane, Mick Hanly and Paul Kelly

are currently touring the country with the aptly titled 'Folk the Recession' show, a lively mix of music, story and song from five of Irelands top folk acts.

Click here to see Late Late show performance by Folk the Recession.

With a wonderful selection of songs by composers such as Marty Robbins, Tom Paxton, Jesse Winchester, Tommy Scott, Joni Mitchell, Johnny Cash, Stephen Foster, Mick Hanly, Chuck Berry, etc. combined with their own arrangements of great traditional tunes is realy is a feast of folk music.

Folk the Recession came about as a result of a group of musicians deciding to just that; to fight the recession with song and story, to pool their diverse musical talents and present something special.

The result is an evening of music and song from five of Ireland’s most renowned folk musicians. Expect the unexpected, from Sliabh Luachra to Nashville, the old and the new, with the sole purpose of pushing the recession and it’s perpetrators to the back of the mind for a few hours. We might be on ‘The Road to Nowhere’ but we well go there singing a song.

The five artists will all be well-known to folk music fans and this chance to see them all on the
same stage presents an opportunity not to be missed.

News

 

Musiclee has been presenting folk/traditional concerts and theatre in various locations around Dublin for over 30years. We are currently looking for a venue where we could set up an art space that would be suitable for such presentations and could also be used for rehersals and exhibitions. We would be very interested in discussing possibilities with any landlord who may have such a space. One large open space with toilet/kitchenette facilities would be ideal but if a suitable space were available we could finance installation of same.
The space would be used largely by members. Noise is not an issue as the music we specialize in is folk and traditional and by and large our audiences are mature music lovers who seek alternative venues to the normal pubs and clubs around Dublin.
Ideally the space could seat 100 plus.
If you have any ideas suggestions please contact:
