Irish singer Len Graham offers traditional songs in English mostly from the North of Ireland, with memories from a lifetime of collecting and singing. Len is one of Ireland's best known traditional singers who has gained an international reputation, not only for his inimitable singing style, but also for the breadth of his knowledge of Irish folk music.

Brían Ó hAirt's (Brian Hart) anomalous voice stands as a testament to the power of tradition. His ability to share the mind's eye of an older generation of singers has afforded him great acclaim at his young age. He became the youngest and first ever American to win the coveted Sgiath Uí Dhálaigh shield at the Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann in Listowel, Co. Kerry in 2002-adding his name to the shield's long list of noted singers including Joe Heaney, Frank Harte and Paddy Berry.

Len will offer a workshop in singing, 5:00-6:30 and Brian, in either Sean Nos Dance, Whistle or Concertina whichever gets the most interest. Please inquire for more info.
