Tim O'Shea and Friend: a Spring Hooley at Burton Hall

Past event
Mar 23, 2024, 4 to 6 PM

Easton Library would like to announce that Tim O'Shea and Friend P'adraig Timoney will be preforming an Irish Folk music concert at Burton Hall on Saturday, March 23rd from 4-6 PM. Tim is now on his US Spring Tour in the Saratoga region and he will bring his songs and tunes from the stunning southwest of Ireland steeped in the Irish Folk Tradition.

Tim is a native of Killarney, Co. Kerry. He has traveled the world wide, playing and performing for over 30 years from India, Europe, Australia, New Zealand to the United States. Tim plays the medieval Baroque Harp, the native Irish drum (the Bodhrán), the guitar, and you will hear contemporary folk songs. Tim has recorded six CDs to date, and has recorded for others also. His latest CD was released in 2017, "Another Skin Too Few", is a tribute to local Kerry musicians no longer with us. He will perform many of the tracks from the CD.

Joining Tim, is Dublin city native, P'adraig Timoney. P'adraig, a multi-instrumentalist himself, plays the fiddle, guitar and sings a song or two. He was raised in the urban Irish Folk Tradition. Expect songs from the Dubliners and Clancy Brothers, as well as lively fiddle dance tunes from all over Ireland.

For a good night out, something different entertaining and the last chance "to get your Irish on" after St. Patrick's Day, still in the month of March. Let us celebrate together "An Irish Spring Hooley". See you at 1071 State Route 40 in Greenwich (Easton's historic Burton Hall). Don't forget to bring your dancing shoes!
