By the Light of the Silvery Moon

16+ Show

“A special evening of Irish Stories for grown-ups told through words, sounds and music in the bardic style.

Strongly influenced by previous bards like Raifterian File, Brian Merriman and Aindrias Mac Cruitín, this tour will see the wandering bard, with his rustic violin and other such accompaniment , Brian Flemming on percussion & Ashling Lyons on harp and concertina, together they travel the roads of Ireland telling tales and short stories to eager audiences.

“He’s a waterboy seanchai, the pied piper of mischief. If he didn’t exist we’d have to invent him because the culture needs spirits like his, a wayward Irish fiddle playing dream talker“Tommy Tiernan

Aindrias’ style is a fast paced, lively new approach to the ancient Irish art form, yet his work is firmly rooted in the traditional storytelling styles of the west of Ireland. Inspired by his work in folklore, nature, and the traditional arts, Aindrias brings us on a journey through tales of villages lost to the sea, misadventures of wandering musicians, humorous recitations, abridged folkloric myths, and of course his own self-penned outrageous tales of otherworldly events.

By the Light of the Silvery Moon is a new experience in storytelling.

“A pioneer in the revival of traditional storytelling, Aindrias has become one of the key figures in the mining, exploration & presentation of Irish Stories & Mythology. He breathes new life into the old tales – infusing them with musicality, rhythm and his unique insights on life. “
