Lovely gig at MAD in Athenry

Galway
Anna Falkenau and Stephen Simmonds at MAD – Athenry Festival of Music, Arts and Dance

Beautiful gig last night, super nice audience, great acoustics and a splendid setting! Thanks to Alan Burgess of Athenry Heritage Centre for having us. Check out all the other events over the weekend.

Lovely tunes over weekend

Had a great session today at An Droighnean Donn in Spiddal. The music raised spirits on a very grey and drizzly Sunday! Roisín Sheoige sang a couple of quality songs, as did Stephen Simmonds and Ged Foley.
Spoilt on Friday too…

Big Congrats
