Songs from Somebody Special CD at Mayo concert fundraiser

Pat McGovern and Friends will perform songs from their fundraising CD Somebody Special in Claremorris Town Hall on Saturday, August 23.

Somebody Special is a CD recorded by Pat McGovern and a group of musician friends from Hollymount and its environs.

The CD is a collection of 10 songs and tunes, and has been a labour of love for the musicians who have all given freely of their time and talents to the project.

The album features 'Somebody Special', 'Katie Daly', 'Rainy Night in Soho', 'Will You Go Lassie Go', 'The Broad Majestic Shannon', 'Will You Meet Me on Clare Island', 'Scorn Not His Simplicity', 'Beeswing', 'The Old Man', 'Hard Times', and a selection of reels. The album was officially launched last April.

All proceeds raised from the sale of the CD and concert in Claremorris will go to The Irish Pilgrimage Trust.
