The fifth concert in the popular ‘Drawing from the Well’ series, the spotlight on Dublin fiddler Tommie Potts brings together some of Ireland’s leading musicians to perform music connected with or inspired by Potts. The evening will be hosted by award-winning historian and broadcaster Dónal Fallon.

One of the country’s oldest and most renowned céilí bands, The Kilfenora Céilí Band are set to provide a high-energy evening of jigs, reels, polkas and more. Over 100 years old, the group has evolved through its many performances at both domestically and abroad, with performances at Glastonbury, Milwaukee Music Festival and New York’s Lincoln Centre.

Tickets for the first two shows go on sale this Wednesday, 13 December via www.nch.ie. Tickets for the St Patrick’s Day celebration of the music of Shaun Davey are on sale now.
