Mary Coughlan and Ultan Conlon for Tyrrellspass

An otherworldly experience awaits those who go to The Sanctuary, The Barn in Tyrrellspass on March 2, when ‘A Close Encounter with Mary Coughlan and Ultan Conlon’ takes place.

Mary Coughlan is one of Ireland’s greatest jazz and blues singers; she has a sense of humour and wit that charm her audiences, and life stories that enthral them. This year, she marks 40 years of performing.

Ultan Conlon is a distinctive and talented singer songwriter.

His latest record, ‘The Starlight Ballroom’, is in regular rotation on national radio stations, and his quips, quick wit and the back stories to his songs keep audiences fully engaged and captivated, which is a rare treat these days.

This combination of stories, songs and audience interaction is a show which has to be experienced.

Tickets are available at ultanconlon.com and marycoughlan.ie.
