Remember the good old days, with open fires, pots of tay, pints of porter, and songs, scéalta and sean-nós. Nah? Neither do we. Instead, we’d prefer to spend an evening listening to two of Ireland’s finest contemporary songwriters at their most naked and bare (not literally, ‘cos nobody wants to see that – not even their mammies).

Glen Hansard will be joining Liam Ó Maonlaí for two passionate live performances in the intimate surrounds of Whelan’s on 07 and 08 March 2011.
