Journeyer Exhibition by Margaret O’Brien

Journeyer Exhibition by Margaret O’Brien – Running: Thursday 1st – Friday 23rd December December will see an exhibition by local artist Margaret O’Brien. The work which was mostly completed during lockdown will comprise a collection of abstract and semi-abstract paintings, created using oil, wax and mixed medium on board and canvas. Her paintings are strongly influenced by landscape and the natural environment. While some of the more recent works carry undertones of change and destruction. The inclusion of materials such as fire ash, bog mould and lichen are a nod to transience and mortality, these fragments also reference emotion, disturbance, harmony, connection and dis-connection, they also serve to form a link to ancient traditions and practices. Gesture and the imagery of fire are also a feature in her work. Margaret is a graduate of LCAD and she has over the years partaken in both solo and group shows.

Villagers: Acoustic Live

Irish indie-folk stalwarts Villagers mark their first visit to The Source with an acoustic set. Since their debut album ‘Becoming a Jackal’ was released more than 10 years ago, Conor O’Brien’s Villagers project have provided listeners with a series of engaging, personal albums. With the release of their fifth studio album ‘Fever Dreams’ in 2021 this lineage is followed and enhanced to mesmerizing effect. Written over the course of two years, the main bodies of the songs were recorded in a series of full-band studio sessions in late 2019 and early 2020. During the long, slow pandemic days, O’Brien refined them in his home studio in Dublin, and the album was then mixed by David Wrench (Frank Ocean, The xx, FKA Twigs). Like all the best records – ‘Fever Dreams’ becomes a mode of transport; it picks you up from where you are and sets you down elsewhere. Hear Villagers in the intimate setting of The Source. Support: Rhob Cunningham Pic: Rich Gilligan Full Bar/ Duration: 2 Hours approx ‘Fever Dreams’ is ‘woozy, psychedelic soul that conjures another world.’NME This event is kindly sponsored by Lion Print Cashel

Freddie White

Freddie White – Saturday 21st January 2023, 8pm – Tickets: €22.00 Freddie White has long been synonymous with music of the highest quality. He has been part of the fabric of the live music scene in Ireland since the 1970’s and his albums continue to sell well, amongst his loyal and newfound fan base. Born in Cobh, Co. Cork into a musical family, by age 17 he was playing professionally. At 19, he moved to London, were he busked in subways, and developed his unique voice and guitar style. His earliest recordings, which were re-mastered and re-released in 2004, are still hugely popular among his loyal fan base. “The sparse and haunting ‘Live on Tour’ is still among the greatest Irish albums of all time. ‘Do You Do’ swings and struts just as profoundly. Imagine those two cuts of vinyl made decade ago, they still stand as perfection” (Irish Times) Freddie moved to Sydney, Australia in March 2011 but continued to tour Ireland and the UK regularly. He then resided in New York City for a few years and has now returned to Ireland. Freddie’s performances will feature new songs along with his classics from his 40-year career as a principal in the […]

People Wipe Me

‘People Wipe Me’ is a one-woman show about a contrary woman with wonky eyes. Derbhile Graham is partially sighted. In plain English, that means she doesn’t see very well. And this has given her freedom to be a contrarian, a woman who is not afraid to swim against the tide, even if it makes her arms sore. Over 60 minutes, she takes us on a tour of her contrarian world, a world full of lumps and bumps for her feet to trip on. Her style could be described as confessional comedy. She makes people laugh, but she also encourages them to ask themselves an important question: Am I willing to pay the price for being myself? Duration: 60 mins
