I was due to see King Kong Company perform in Naas recently, but unfortunately, that festival got cancelled. So, when I was asked if I'd like to go see them in Dolans , Limerick, I obviously said yes! I hopped in the car after work last Friday and hit the road. A few stops alongt he way, and I was there by 19:30, in plenty of time to make the show. I've seen King Kong Company plenty of times now to know what to expect. I was curious to see how Bobby Fingers would perform though, what with him have a dodgy leg. I needn't have worried though. He bounced around the stage on one leg, waving a cane in the air like a mad man! Support on the night was from local hip-hop artist, Citrus Fresh , a new name to me, but I really enjoyed his set. Anyway, on to the photos:
I’ve seen Lisa Loughrey play many times over the last few years and I’ve enjoyed every gig. Not only does she have an incredible voice, but she writes amazing songs also. You really should check her out on YouTube and go buy her music!
The setting for tonight's gig was the beautiful Tea Lane Graveyard in Celbridge.
The Chapel, which now doubles as an performance space for the arts, was full of very appreciative fans and Lisa and band played a stormer of a gig. One of the many things I love about Lisas music is the story that goes with a song. Every song has a tale attached to it, be it something personal or something historical. It adds so much to the performance.
Anyway, add Lisa to that ever growing list of artists that I recommend and when you get the chance to see her live, don't wonder if you should go, just go!
