IMDL´s Sliabh Aughty London Weekend!
IMDL presents a Sliabh Aughty London Weekend, 12th - 14th April
At this three-day event hosted by IMDL, the mighty trio Sliabh Aughty will bring the finest of traditional Irish music from the East Clare / East Galway region, where the mountain range they are named after stands proud. There is an infectious pulse to their music and a respectful nod to music of the greats who have gone before them.
For this special weekend they will play a Concert, a Session and a Set-Dancing Céilí.
Sliabh Aughty features Charlie Harris (Limerick born accordionist (long-time resident in East Galway), TG4 Gradam Ceoil Musician of the Year Award recipient 2009 and past member of ‘The Shaskeen’), Mark Donnellan (East Clare native, fiddler, regular host of the renowned Wednesday evening sessions at Pepper’s Bar in Feakle and son of one of the founding members of the Tulla Céilí Band, Francie Donnellan) and Jim Corry (East Clare native, pianist and member of a number of popular céilí bands, including the Swallow’s Tail and the Salamander).
All three musicians are long time members of the legendary Tulla Céilí Band – who marked the band’s 70th Anniversary with their 6th album in 2016.
