THEY’RE Donegal’s most famous export – and tonight fans who have flown into Dublin from all over the world will gather at the city’s Christ Church Cathedral for an historic performance of Clannad!
The original five-piece line up of Moya Brennan, Pol Brennan, Padraig Duggan, Ciaran Brennan and Noel Duggan are reunited to perform a show that will fully reflect the extent of their 40 year career.
Although Pol has made a couple of live appearances with them since his departure in 1989, this will be the first time in over twenty years that the classic line up will present a full concert.
They are performing as part of Tradfest – originally for one night only until tickets sold out, so the first of three consecutive performances is tonight (Thursday).
Said Moya: “I know there were tickets sold to fans from America, Japan and all over Europe as well as Ireland – and Donegal of course – so we are really delighted to be playing.
“We’re looking forward to these gigs so much, especially because of the settings in Christ Church. It promises to be brilliant.”
