John Prine as Gaeilge

For fans of the late John Prine (his importance to the bluegrass world is shown here), the Pavilion Theatre, Dun Laoghaire, presents 'Where the angels sing: the John Prine project' (Tonscadal John Prine: Áit a gCanann na hAingil). It comprises, to quote the theatre,

a selection of Prine’s very best songs [...] rendered into exquisite Irish by Art Hughes and Gabriel Rosenstock. They are performed live by Liam Ó Maonlaí (vocals, piano, harmonica), Peter O’Toole (guitar) and Hilary Bow (vocals). Margaret Lonergan has created screen projections of the lyrics with beautiful images. Produced by IMRAM Féile Litríochta Gaeilge.

Tickets (€25) can be bought online.
