Rynne, Custy & McSherry le hAíonna Kathleen MacInnes & Laoise Kelly
Cuirfidh tallainn cheolmhar an tríréid seo iontas an domhain ort. Ag seinm le chéile ó 2003, is baill bunaidh iad fosta den bhanna ceoil is iontaí agus is corraithí in Éirinn i nglúin s’againne darb ainm “Guidewires”. Sa cheol s’acu tá seanphoirt agus poirt nua le port ó thar sáile inameasc. Is é an rud atá difriúil fá dtaobh díobh ná an bealach a
chóiríonn siad na píosaí ceoil seo. Ag an cheolchoirm seo seinnfidh an tríréad cuid mhór port nár chualathas riamh roimhe.

Last few tickets remaining

Performing together since 2003, they are also founder members of Irelands hottest and most exciting band of our current generation “Guidewires”. Their music consists of both new and old tunes with an odd foreign set thrown in for good measure.What makes them so different is their arrangements of these musical pieces. This concert includes many new unheard sets from the three.
