It is with great anticipation that we look forward to Tom McConville joining us to celebrate our Club’s 18th Birthday on 9th October.
It is far too long since we had the joy of Tom coming to play for us, and when asked had had no hesitation saying “yes” to our invitation.
Tom’s musical journey started in the Northeast folk clubs in the early 70s. Newcastle’s thriving Irish scene provided the opportunity, with his first band, to support Sean McGuire, John Doonan, The Fureys, Boys of the Lough and even a lock-in with The Dubliners. Tom still credits the legendary Sean McGuire, the fiddle genius from Belfast, for teaching him his bowing techniques.
There will also be cake!
