From the organizers: Please join St. Paul’s in welcoming Irish recording artists Tommy and Saundra O’Sullivan for an evening of traditional and original Irish music. Tommy and Saundra own, manage and perform at O’Sullivan’s Courthouse Pub in Dingle on the wind-swept southwest coast of Ireland, a renowned center for Irish Folk Music. Tommy is a master guitarist with “A tenor voice that has all the ring of Waterford crystal which has only ever served smokey whiskey”– Sean Laffey, Irish Music Magazine. His wife and musical partner Saundra hails from Texas and was a nurse in her former life. Of them, the prolific Irish music reviewer Nicky Rossiter said: “The husband-and-wife team from Dingle must surely be the best exponents of what Irish folk should be.” If all goes as planned, Tommy and Saundra will be joined by local Irish musicians and maybe even dancers!
