Summer Music Series with Lonesome George
Live music, scenic views, and laid-back vibes with Lonesome George in Castle Ward’s historic courtyard.
- Booking not needed
- Free event (admission applies)
Lonesome George’s song-writing (in both English and Irish language) deals with love, life and revolution; addressing mental health, the treatment of refugees and the environmental crisis. These ideas are brought to life through multi-layered riff-led grooves; 4 & 5 part harmonies, ethereal & ambient pieces; rip-roaring reels and other dance rhythms; and a selection of flavours from various genres interwoven to create a unique sound; changing from song to song, all while remaining rooted in the Irish tradition.
LG is Joe Campbell-McArdle (guitar, vocals), Myles McCormack (mandolin, vocals), Catriona Ní Ghribín (accordion, vocals), Fintan Mulholland (flute, whistles, vocals), Dermot Moynagh (bodhrán, percussion)
Grab a blanket, round up your favourite people, and stretch out in the summer sun. Bring a picnic or pick up a treat from the tearoom—either way, the vibe is relaxed, the music’s live, and the backdrop is unbeatable.
No booking needed, just drop in and enjoy. Entry included with admission or membership.
