The Carrickmacross Arts Festival has announced the stellar line-up of talent that’s Monaghan-bound from August 10-13.
The musical attractions include Mercury-nominated pop-rockers The Magic Numbers, funk soul legends Booka Brass, Otherkin who gave Guns N’ Roses a serious run for their money recently at Slane, and that other holy triumvirate of Irish acts, Turn, We Cut Corners and Heroes In Hiding.
The quality tunes don’t end there with Zoe Conway & John McIntyre, Darling, Video Blue, Ana Gog, Kern, Pine The Pilcrow, Anna Jordan, Buffalo Sunn, Hvmmingbird, Ines Khai and Grace Wilde all doing their respective things.
David McSavage, Lisa Casey, Michael Downey, Barry Mack and MC Lorcan McGrane are the Comedy Night attractions, with Italian street theatre troupe Theatro Due Mondi, photorealist Barry Jazz Finnegan, live drama, open air cinema, poetry recitals, children’s activities, workshops, seminars, artisan trade stalls, dance showcases, and storytelling all adding to the summer fun.
Day tickets priced €50 are available from www.carrickmacrossartsfestival.com
