Irishtown
Steve Cooney (guitar), Cormac Breatnach (Whistles), Dermot Byrne (Accordion): three of Ireland’s most lauded traditional musicians perform together.
This concert will feature music from the historical Irish Tradition – harp music from the 17th & 18th centuries and music particularly connected to Clonmel and its environs,
Dermot Byrne’s seemingly effortless playing, combined with great subtlety and a faultless ear, makes him one of the finest accordion players of his generation.
A member of the renowned Irish traditional music band Altan from 1994 to 2013, Dermot has also collaborated with many great musicians including, Sharon Shannon, Frankie Gavin, The Stunning, and the late jazz violinist Stephane Grappelli.
