BARRY MC CORMACK

As a special treat to consumptive orphans and unemployed chimney sweeps across the land, Barry McCormack is presenting a very special evening of 'murder ballads on ice' upstairs in Whelan's on Saturday the 27th of December.12 euro. Bring ice.

Barry's new album Night Visiting has been getting some good notices--

'f***ing brilliant...it's a testament to McCormack's literary songwriting that his work stands up to intense scrutiny'
State magazine ****

'McCormack takes his listener into dark, surreal and often downright funny territory...this is Patrick McCabe put to music. And just as in McCabe's novels the macabre and the hilarious often sit side by side.'
Irish Independent ****

'If you like dark ruminations and tales that come from a trady tradition quite at odds with fifteen years of the Celtic Tiger you'll love Barry McCormack'
Hot Press *****
