Andy Irvine

We are really pleased to be welcoming Andy Irvine back to the Goose! Andy is one of the great Irish singers, his voice one of a handful of truly great ones that gets to the very soul of Ireland. He has been hailed as "a tradition in himself". Musician, singer, songwriter, he has maintained his highly individual performing skills throughout his over 55-year career. Andy has been at the helm of legendary bands like Sweeney?s Men in the mid 60s, to the enormous success of Planxty in the 70s, and then Patrick Street, Mozaik, LAPD and recently Usher?s Island. Andy has been a world music pioneer and an icon for traditional music and musicians. * Door 7pm * DJ FlapJackDavey 7 - 8pm and 11pm onwards * Live music 8-11pm * Tickets on the door (where still available) will be priced at ?22 - CASH OR BACS ONLY, SORRY! * Food available!
