Galway in Song with John Faulkner at Tuam Public Library

After a very successful night recently in Gort Public Library, Galway City and County Musician in Residence John Faulkner heads north to Tuam Library where he will explore Galway’s local song tradition at a lunchtime presentation on Wednesday 6th May at 1.00pm.
As part of the Musician in Residence programme John is giving a series of illustrated talks/performances, in various libraries around County Galway. As usual these events are free and open to all.
The performances around the county will involve a particularly local focus, with songs from and about Galway. This programme has been devised as a first step towards reviving interest in local song, and in retrieving a repertoire of local songs that are fast passing from living memory. Galway in Song is organised in conjunction with Galway City & County Library Service.
