The Gort Mile: Manchester launch

Chorlton Irish club will host a superb night of Irish Mancunian music on Saturday 14th July:

Angela will be launching her debut album “The Gort Mile” alongside two of her long-time friends and collaborators Michael McGoldrick and Desi Donnelly, who will be playing tracks from their new album “Dog in the Fog”.  All three Manchester-born musicians honed their skills with local Comhaltas branches as children and all have gone on to great things in their own right.

There will be a top-class line-up of special guests joining in on the night, including Matt Griffin (Guitar), John Carty (Fiddle and Banjo) and Michael Coult (Flute),  no doubt joined by more local Manchester talent. 

A great night is in store!
