Irish Mythen – Sept. 9, 2011 – 8 pm – $20

Her earliest musical influences were sounds of Makem and Clancy, Planxty and Bob Dylan being played by her parents as they drove around the Caribbean island of Trinidad where she lived as a child. She later moved to the Middle East with her parents and this is where she took up the guitar, singing and writing songs.   After completing her secondary education Irish went on to the Ballyfermot “rock School” for 2 years where she studied musical performance as well as the practical side of the music industry.  1996 saw her based in Sweden to start what would be a 4 year tour of Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland and the U.K.  In 2000 she moved to Australia where she quickly established a large and loyal following. 2006 – Another move, this time to Atlantic Canada,, where she is currently based, while performing across the country. Irish has a way of delivering her songs that leave you wondering long after the show is over.
