Dublin city's Peadar Hickey performs his one man show in celebration of the St Patrick's season. You will hear old Irish traditional songs, songs in the Irish language, songs of resistance and remembrance as well as songs from some more contemporary Irish writers. Peadar is an accomplished guitar player and singer with a long history of performing throughout Ireland, Europe and across the US and Canada. He has been a member of Derek's Warfield's Young Wolfe Tones, The Prodigals and Basket House Band, touring the Irish festival circuit in the US for over a decade. In 2016 he had the honor of performing for the US President and other dignitaries at Capitol Hill in Washington DC. Beyond music alone, Peadar is a true Gael. The Irish language, Gaelic games and Irish history have been foremost in his life since he was a boy. With past and present music residencies in some of the biggest Irish pubs in Dublin, New York and even Las Vegas, Peadar brings his knowledge of Ireland and Irish music to his audiences in a lively and highly entertaining package. Grab yourself a seat and buckle up. We will be departing for Dublin shortly...... (Sponsored by the Friends of the Library)
