Are you sitting comfortably?... then I'll begin..
I have been reading about bands, solo singers and poets doing one off, intimate gigs in fan's houses, as a warm up to playing bigger shows, a superb idea in my opinion, up close and personal, indeed.
Now you can share in one of these shows as the Manchester Irish Language Group kick off this years Arts Festival with an intimate, bi-lingual, all ages living room show from Róisín Seoighe x IMLÉ.
IMLÉ are a musical collective founded by producer & musician Cian Mac Cárthaigh in 2016, the goal is to combine different musical styles with various musicians and singers, similar to acts such as Gorillaz and Massive Attack.
The main difference is that IMLÉ sing and rap in Irish – producing a sound and style that has never been heard before in the Irish language... curious? then read on it gets better,
Róisín Seoighe is a musician and singer from Conamara in Galway whose music mixes different genres from pop & folk to traditional music and cover many different topics from language rights, our relationship with the world around us and finding hope in despair.
This promises to be a great evening, bring your own booze, kick your shoes off at the door, sit back and watch the show your in for a treat I promise you.
How much for this one off musical extravaganza I hear you scream... it's a tenner, that's correct £10 the price of a couple of pints in nearby soulless, trendy bars.
The date is Friday 29th September with guests (you) arriving at 7.30pm and the bands performing at 8.30pm until 23.00pm... far be it from me to suggest an impromptu whip round with a hat... just saying.
Tickets are available but going quick, so get booking.
