Cathy Jordan and Jarlath Henderson – in workshop!

Sing like Cathy Jordan! Play the pipes like Jarlath Henderson!

At least a bit!

Yes, the singer with Dervish and the man who pops up in all sorts of all-star outfits are coming to us for workshops on Friday 15th September. Cathy Jordan will work with the singers, and Jarlath with work with either whistles or pipes, depending on demand.

It’s all happening here at the Regional Cultural Centre in Letterkenny before their concert with Mick Daly at 8pm that evening. But don’t sleep in – Cathy can take up to ten in the singing workshop (4.30pm – 5.30pm), Jarlath up to eight in the instrumental workshop (4pm – 5.30pm).
