Album Launch Concerts
Coming Up!
Through music, poetry, and storytelling, The Poetry Stroll brings to life the history and literary landmarks of Dublin.
After a year of tracing the footsteps of James Joyce, Leopold Bloom, Cashel Boyle O’Connor Fitzmaurice Tisdall Farrell — and many others — around Sweny’s Pharmacy, Merrion Square Park, and Finn’s Hotel, the songs and verses performed during The Poetry Stroll have now been gathered on an album: Lotus Eater: Songs & Verses from the Poetry Stroll.
Join me for a series of launch concerts at Sweny's Pharmacy, Caiféin and the James Joyce Centre
