Second show in Westport series

Sara and Hubie MacEvilly

Uri Kohen of Electric Cave Productions, organiser of the Westport Folk and Bluegrass Festival, reports:

On Saturday 18 April we will stage the second gig in our festival promotion gigs. This time we will present the unique show of the MacEvillys. Sarah and Hubie will be joined on stage by John Flatley on bass and Rob Thornburgh on fiddle. Together they will play their special sound of bluegrass.

The show will be at Geraghty's Pub, the Octagon, Westport, Co. Mayo. The Festival will be held at Westport on 26-8 June. NB: the Festival MySpace site now has some new videos taken at last year's festival.


Uri also sends these pictures taken during a visit by Pete Seeger to Israel in 1964; above, Uri's father introduces him to the audience. Pete Seeger's ninetieth birthday will be celebrated on 3 May 2009.
