Upcoming events


The Shane McGowan Appreciation Society is presented as part of this series of unique performances held at the Irish Folk Music school in Glenisland, Castlebar, Co Mayo.

Each month our music teachers will present their favourite songs of their favourite recording artists in their own style with a variety of traditional instruments.

The Shane McGowan event was one of the highlights of a successful first season featuring the music of Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, John Prine and more.

To mark 1 year since his passing, The Shane McGowan Appreciation Society will have another outing on Saturday December 7th.

For one night only on Saturday December 7th, our music teachers will perform some of the most famous and popular songs as well as personal favourites and lesser known gems.

There is no alcohol at this event but freshly brewed coffee, tea and goodies will be provided

Doors open at 7:30 and the show starts at 8pm.
