  • La Mansarda Festival 27th July - 𝐒𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐚 & 𝐋𝐨𝐬 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐬 𝐄𝐫𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐬

    La Mansarda, an amazing cultural events company is organising a fantastic festival this Saturday the 27th of July at Smock Alley Theatre in Dublin. It's an amazing opportunity to enjoy some performances from wonderful artists and at the same time get to meet people from all over the world who are based in Dublin.


    I loved the idea of this festival and decided to interview some of the artists performing on the day. This episode is a conversation with Santierra & Los Protones Errantes. Incredible musicians who perform in their native tongue and can bring any room to life. We chatted about their musical journey in Dublin and how they ended up performing together.


    The revenue from the ticket sales will be equally split: half to support the arts, therefore for artists performing, and half to support EMERGENCY NGO.


    I hope you enjoy this episode and hopefully see you at Smock Alley Theatre this Saturday!

    I loved the idea of this festival and decided to interview some of the artists performing on the day. This episode is a conversation with Compagnia Nous, an Italian performing arts group from Napoli. Their creativity and love for what they do is infectious and I loved chatting to them about all things Napoli and Dublin. This is a good one if you want to practice your Italian!

  • Arn from Donegal - Making a career out of music in Ireland.

    This is a great chat that I had with Arn about music, his life story so far and about the gig he has in Whelan’s Thursday the 20th of June. He’ll have support from David San Clair and Daragh Daly and look listen lads, these fellas have got some serious talent. We’ve had David play one of our shows and he blew us all away. I’ve heard phenomenal things about Daragh and just have a listen to some of the stuff Arn has put out on Spotify and you’ll know that this is a massively undervalued gig… Get down there if you can, I’ll leave a link to Arn’s Spotify and the gig tickets in the description of this episode


    Before we jump in, to our regular listeners I wanted to apologise for the irregularity of the episodes recently…It’s been a mad year so far and as much as I’d love to spend every waking minute working on this podcast, it just hasn’t been possible recently. Thanks so much to everyone who has written in…I will respond to all of you soon… and we will get back to our previous rhythm again soon. Let’s call this downtime Mark’s little hiatus…

  • Mark and Eoin - Choose your battles!

    With a surprising number of references to roads and driving...Mark and Eoin take on the theme of 'choosing your battles'. Ryanair flights, the M50, and growing up with the Catholic church, they bounce their ideas off a number of Irish cultural phenomenons.


    Have a listen to this episode and let us know what you think!
