Zoë Conway and John Mc Intyre have announced a series of six concert dates for July and August after the overwhelming success of the series last year. Carlingford Heritage Centre, located in the breathtaking St. Micheal’s Holy Trinity Church at the heart of the medieval town has proved to be a wonderful setting for these concerts, with the ambience of the church complimenting the acoustic fiddle and guitar performances beautifully.

The Sunday concerts are one hour long, from 4-5pm, allowing people the freedom to explore the villages many other attractions.

Tickets (€10 / €6 concessions) are available from The Holy Trinity Centre on 042 937 3454. Many local restaurants are offering a pre-theatre menu with concession price ticket; Ghan House, McKevitts Hotel, The Bay Tree, The Four Seasons and The Kingfisher - please book in advance.

With an exciting blend of eclectic fiddle and guitar music, Zoë and John bring to the stage sympathetic arrangements of traditional Irish music, compositions and songs, old and new. The duo possesses a rare facility to draw pieces into their repertoire from other genres such as classical, jazz and world music and express this material in way which not only displays the sheer range and knowledge of both instrumentalists but also exhibits the wonderful versatility of their instruments.

This year they are also excited to introduce a special guest at each concert:
