This is an Irish night with a difference ! RACJAC ( or RACKERJAC) are the Irish performance poet and singer Peter Donnelly known as the Racker and the Flute/whistle player / singer Jacqueln Hines. So we can expect a very Irish evening with two wildly contrasting performers.
The Rackeris unique . Drawing heavily on traditions and absurdity his stories, rhymes & songs, are about Sheep, Smoking, Tennis, Oysters, Joyce, Midsummer, Politics, Christmas, The Dublin Riviera, Yeats, Football, Dracula, Wilde, Foul Rulers, Goldilocks, Boris, Irish Proverbs, English History, Burns, Chaucer, Pigs, Woking, Yorkshire, plus several biographical tributes & whatever you’re having yourself!
Jacquelyn Hynesis an internationally respected whistle and flute player (and Piano player and singer) who plays across musical genres as well as traditional Irish and English music. Jacquelyn has played alongside and supported many of Ireland’s leading artists including Liam Ó Maonlaí (UK tour); Martin Hayes, Michael McGoldrick, Mary Coughlan and Lunasa (ICC).
Her debut CD “Silver and Wood” received 4 star reviews Jacquelyn is also an actress and a Senior Folk Lecturer.
How will these two possibly work together? Come along and find out ! Entrance is £12.
Of course our lovely residents Shotley Crue and Ian and Sarah will also be on hand to provide ace harmonies .
