More news in from Fergus. Interference will be playing at the new Macroom Lughnasa festival this coming August 22nd.
IRISH music festivals were born in Macroom. Now thanks to local effort once more they are returning to the town. A new arts festival ‘Lughnasa Festival Macroom 2009’ takes place from August 17 to 23 keeping up the tradition of the former Mountain Dew festivals of the 1980s.
The festival features music, comedy, theatre, art, crafts, food, children’s activities and exhibitions. “We aim to showcase up and coming Cork talent and the centrepiece of the festival will be a music concert in the marquee in the Castle Grounds on Saturday,” says organiser Mark Cronin. Featured are FRED, Director, Interference, Remma, Elly O’Keeffe & Band, My Evil Ex, KingSear and Haymaker.
hey, Fergus: Thanks so much for adding the painting video. Now, it’s probably close to time to add more of your paintings on this site, yes? We’d love to see them!
