“Dublin Street” meets Cathedral Square for St Patrick’s Celebration Concert
FREE Friday lunchtime concert Cathedral Square, 14 March 12.00 pm – 2.00 pm
Cathedral Square will be transformed with the toe-tapping, hand clapping sounds of the Dublin Street Band accompanied
by vibrant and talented local gaelic dancers this Friday lunchtime, with a concert set to kick start St. Patrick’s
celebrations in the city.
The 5 piece band combine their talents on accordion, whistle, fiddle, guitar, drums and vocals covering music by The
Pogues, Levelers, Waterboys and Van Morrison through to traditional Irish jigs and reels that are sure to impress with
their lightning speed and breathtaking precision.
“Dublin Street Band” reformed 6 months ago and now features Sophia Bidwell, Jeremy Brownbrooke, Peter Thomson, Luke
Braxton and Russell Gillies. Their unique brand of Celtic Rock can be heard regularly at Bailies Bar in the Sqaure.
