event details

Dervish and Suzanne Houston & Neil Ewart

Sunday 25th January 2009, 8.00pm

Glasgow Royal Concert Hall : Strathclyde Suite

Long ranked among Ireland’s foremost folk acts, the Sligo six-piece Dervish combine awesomely tight, accomplished instrumental playing with the ineffably lovely voice of Cathy Jordan, in a distinctive repertoire of songs old and new, alongside traditional and original tunes. Completing the line-up are Liam Kelly (flute/whistles), Tom Morrow (fiddle), Shane Mitchell (accordion), Brian McDonagh (mandola) and Michael Holmes (bouzouki).

Support comes from 2008 Danny Kyle Award winners Suzanne Houston (piano) and Neil Ewart (fiddle), an impressive duo who met at The National Centre of Excellence in Traditional Music in Plockton.
