Via dedicated brother Murphy (the not-mayor one), I was alerted to the upcoming performance of Gráinne Murphy along with band mate and pianist Kathleen Boyle. Gráinne is a fiddler of some renown. They’ll be upstairs at The Old Court Irish Pub on 29-31 Central St. this Friday at 8 p.m. Tickets cost $18, at the door or in advance.
HiL has a great interview with the Lowell native. And if we’re really lucky, we might even get the Mayor to jump in for a spell! (On the tin whistle, apparently.)
Irish music rocks.

How do you say “Happy Birthday” in Gaelic? Anyone?

“Lá breithe sona duit” according to the ever-helpful web.
Pronunciation, well, you’re on your own. Good luck remembering once you suss it out! (D in duit = G???)
