Live Music in Dublin – 22-1-18
The TradFest (24th to 28th of January) is the big event in town. There are too many to show here so we just have the highlights. Otherwise, we’d recommend Wallis Bird in Whelans, Public Service Broadcasting in The Academy, Martha Wainwright at St Patrick’s Cathedral, Dublin and of course, This Is How We Fly at St Michan’s Church.
