New music by An Cosán Draíochta is set to come to Cultúrlann McAdam Ó Fiaich this Sunday.
An Cosán Draíochta is a new body of work created by well-known musician and composer Johnny Óg Connolly in honour of his father, Johnny Pháraic Phíotair.
Commissioned by Stiúideo Cuan, Johnny Óg Connolly, the famous mileadoidean composed new music in honour and in memory of his father. His father Johnny Pháraic Phíotair was someone who dedicated his spirit and soul in all the music he played and provided a steady beat for sean-nós dancers globally.
The work will include brand new music by a range of musicians including Clíodhna Ní Choisdealbha (banjo), Ciara Ní Bhriain (fiddle), Pádraig Ó Dubhghaill (guitar), Jim Higgins (drums& piano), Johnny Óg Connolly (bosca), Seosamh Ó Neachtain (dance) and the talented singer Áine Ní Dhroighneáin.
An Domhnach Seo Chugainn!
