On this episode, we speak to Mabel Chah, singer/songwriter/ Project Coordinator for Sligo Global Kitchen/ Business HR Graduate

Mabel lives in Sligo, and can offer an alternative menu for your event,

She is a singer-songwriter with strengths in pop, RnB, jazz, soul, rap, afro-pop and I will sing or attempt any song put In-front of her and will sing for your private or public events as well.

Here are some of the questions we discussed on the show . . . 

I am the coordinator for Sligo Global Kitchen a project that brings people together over traditional meals cooked by people from different cultures.
I am a business graduate from IT in the HR domain

What do you love about living in Sligo?: Life in Sligo so far has been really beautiful and supportive. The scenery is breathtaking the Sligo people in my life are amazing they are family away from home and family.

If you could wave a magic wand what would you fix or bring to Sligo ie. facilities, shops, restaurants, culture/arts?: I would say businesses bringing jobs. But I fear more jobs will turn Sligo into something it is not at the moment and Sligo may lose its appeal. We need businesses and jobs to develop and grow. 
A tight spot this is.

What keeps you awake at night?: My family's being alive the next day when I call back home. I have woken up a few times to call my dad because I had a nightmare where he was being tortured.

What are your must-do Sligo recommendations? Restaurants/Walks etc.:  

Hazelwood
The Knocknarea climb
The Holy well
A Sligo Global Kitchen event. 

How can people find you online? 

Yes, call me up if you need a singer for your occasion. I will propose an unusual playlist mainly jazz, pop, rap and RnB

Hi my name is Clodagh, and this is Sligo Life. I left Sligo in the early 90’s lived in the UK, Australia, New Zealand and returned home in 2012. I have been podcasting since 2016 and love it. I have always been flying around the world for work and not feeling very connected to the place I called home, hence the idea for creating a local podcast came about. Each week I interview people who live in Sligo to share their stories about why they choose to live here, how they help the community, what are they are worried about, what they would like to change in Sligo, what they are excited about and their best tips and recommendations for what to do in Sligo. I hope you enjoy the show - if you would like to be a guest email me - [email protected]
