Is cúis bhróid agus áthais í d’An Droichead go bhfuil criú inspioráideach Naomhóig na Tinte linn chun ár bhféile a oscailt i mbliana, ceoltóir iomráiteach Glen Hansard agus laoch ceoil traidisiúnta Brendan Begley ina measc. Déanfar ceiliúradh ar an mhór-thuras ag an imeacht speisialta seo trí cheol traidisiúnta, trí amhráin agus trí chomhrá.

This inspiring crew have been making an epic voyage to join the official Camino route across Northern Spain; in a hand-made, traditional, wooden framed, canvas covered boat they made themselves; known locally in the Dingle peninsula as a Naomhóg. Beginning in May 2014 in Dublin they began following an ancient 700km long Camino sea route across northern Spain towards their ultimate destination arriving at Santiago de Compostela in May 2016.
This intimate performance will chart the trials and tribulations of their voyage through song, music, stories and conversations. Joining Glen (The Frames /The Commitments) and Brendan (Boys of the Lough) will be Liam Holden, Danny Sheehy and Brendan Ó Mhuircheartaigh.
