LIVE NIGHT 4 December 2012

Hue Grass are a contemporary mix of bluegrass country/folk/style of music with an eclectic range of pace, performance, personality, poise and beauty! HueGrass is Rachel, Peter, Roisin, Jodi and Karima, a group of locals who got together through their shared interested in Irish and American folk music, and their love of harmonising. They met through playing at a local trad session in Greystones and made their debut performance at this year’s Greystones Americana and Roots Festival.

Avoca Sean Olohan from Wicklow Town and Simon Keogh from Dublin have been together for longer than they’d care to remember! They have played at home and abroad as a two piece band, but extend to a three or four piece as The CANTONS.


Avoca have toured in Switzerland, Portugal, Germany and Austria, as well as throughout Ireland. Sean’s song ‘SAVING LIVES’ has been the group’s biggest success to date, topping the Irish National Charts.

We welcome Sean and Simon back to the Space Inside for another lively evening of memorable folk songs.

Jerard J Manning or Jj ‘thumbpicks’ Manning plays acoustic guitar, slide guitar and 5 string banjo. He has been playing on the acoustic scene for 30 years off and on. In his early years he performed at Cambridge, Bromyard and Tanner's Hatch festivals, as well as an appearance at the Cardiff University Festival alongside such musical note worthies as The Chieftains, The Fureys and Davy Arthur.


Jj will be joined on the night by some of his friends. Anything can happen.
