This will be the world premiere concert performance of this music and Edel's first performance since the album release in March. It will also be her first ever solo concert performance of this kind, having spent over 10 years as a jazz vocalist performing in various formats: jazz quartets, quintets etc and even a 17-piece jazz orchestra.

Acclaimed singer-songwriter and Tipperary woman EDEL MEADE released her stunning new album BRIGIDS AND PATRICIAS on International Women’s Day and has seen been regularly featured across Irish radio amongst the finest songwriters of our time.

A strikingly original artist working in the field of jazz, folk and contemporary music; her voice has been described as mesmerising or magical even, while her music is haunting and powerful. This extraordinary new collection of original songs and spoken word reflects on what it means to be a woman living in 21st century Ireland, shaped by Irish history, folklore and contemporary society.
