A slice of Irish

The Noosa Irish night returns to Flanagan’s Noosa Reef on Wednesday 21 December with music starting at 6pm. Singer songwriter, and guitarist Alan Kelly is Dublin born and sings original, traditional folk and refreshing and skillful interpretations of well known songs. His songwriting talents have won him several awards including the Queensland Music Award for World music. Notably, he has recorded as a soloist for the Lord of the Rings soundtrack working with Howard Shore and the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra. Alan is also the front man and driving force behind the Celtic folk rock band, the Barleyshakes, and his energy as a performer never fails to captivate his audience.

Joining Alan on the night as always is multi-instrumentalist Steve Cook. Steve is a master musician and plays lively jigs and reels on mandolin and fiddle. He also busts out his self crafted electric guitar to accompany Alan’s songs. Entry is free and it’s a family friendly venue where all ages are welcome until 9pm.
