A reminder that John Conolly returns to Dreamers Folk at the Victoria Inn, Four Lanes, this Sunday, 24th September 2023 at 7.30pm. Most famous for writing “Fiddlers Green” a song suggesting where old sailors go when their sailing days are over. John is so much more than one song and although Sea Songs are the bedrock of John’s repertoire, a typical Conolly performance will cast its net more widely. . . there might be anti-war outbursts like “Old Men Sing Love Songs” and “The Last Ploughshare”, tender love songs like “Out of Season” and “Keep on Trying”, or political squibs like “Two Little Chaps” or “Big Bucks for Bull-shit”. . . There will always be humour, represented perhaps by one of John’s “saucy postcard songs” like “Send us a Postcard”, ”Bucket and Shovel Brigade” or “The Bionic Fisherman”.
Come along on Sunday and join the chorus, see you there.
