Three dynamic women at the peak of their powers
Christine Tobin really transcends glib genre-fication. Her expressive range acknowledges finely acquired folk, jazz and 20th-century classical influences, which already sets her apart.
Carole Nelson is, without question, and as the refined language of her writing and playing constantly reiterates, a singular voice, unencumbered by tradition, style or fads"
‘One needs certain qualities to interpret the classic standards besides a superlative voice, that is. A sense of drama, certainly, a sense of empathy with the emotions the songs evoke – loss, the transient nature of pleasure, love, attachment, most of all perhaps a sense of fidelity to the emotions themselves. Honor Heffernan has all of these in spades, but brings to her interpretations a beautiful, classical sense of detachment.
Arthur’s on Sunday April 27th and Sunday May 25th. With Cormac O Brien on bass and Dominic Mullan on drums.
Arthur's is the nearest pub on the route to The Guinness Storehouse, one of the city's foremost tourist attractions. It is popular both with locals and tourists. Naturally it has the freshest pint of Guinness in all of Ireland.
