NTB at Temple Bar Tradfest, Jan. 2019

Niall Toner (left) announced a week ago on Facebook:

I am still 'in recovery', though totally inspired, after three weeks in the USA, at IBMA in Raleigh, NC, and Nashville, TN, but looking forward to the next outings for the Niall Toner Band... December the 3rd, we will play Ballymore Eustace for Roy Thompson, which will be the end-of-year gig for his excellent music club [see the BIB for 25 Oct.]. Then, our first gig of 2019 will be, I'm delighted to say, in St Michan's church in Dublin, as part of Tradfest 2019, on Thursday January the 24th. So, check us out!
