  • Tuesday's Child Is Full of Hits
    Tuesday’s Child is … Full of Hits! Renowned UK music producer Jon Astley - the man behind hit albums by The Who, Eric Clapton and Debbie Harry - has teamed up with an Irish children's charity for a fundraising CD featuring top home-grown artists. Brother-in-law of guitar legend Pete Townsend, Astley agreed to compile Tuesday's Child (named after the charity), in support of their projects in 12 poverty-stricken regions such as the shanty towns of Sao Paolo, Bosnia-Herzegovina, The Congo, Gaza and Zimbabwe, where children are suffering - and in many cases starving - from a fundamental lack of resources. The compilation album features 31 soulful tracks by Irish acts including Snow Patrol (You Could Be Happy), Ronan Keating (Heaven), Westlife (Angel), Brian Kennedy (What You Wish For), Mary Black (Speaking With The Angel), The 4 of Us (Sunlight), Duke Special (Come Wander With Me), Eleanor McEvoy (When You Smile) and Kila , who wrote a new song, Beyond , for the CD. ‘We came up with the idea of putting childhood photographs of all the artists involved on the CD cover and insert ,’ said Jon, who has recently finished working on a Boomtown Rats re-issue. ‘ It’s an evocative reminder of how innocent and vulnerable we all are as children, and of how important it is for us to do our bit to help the most underprivileged kids of this world .’ Snow Patrol singer Gary Lightbody came on board with the project after becoming an uncle for the first time . ‘ Upon my first hold of my niece Honey, I soon realised that without my sister and my brother-in- law she would be helpless,’ said Gary.

  • THE CONCERT SCENE Heatons, Mcevoy, Gaelic Storm Top Lineup
    September 2013 Boston’s hometown VOL. 24 #9 journal of Irish culture. $1.50 Worldwide at All contents copyright © 2013 Boston Neighborhood News, Inc. bostonirish.com SEPTEMBER SOUNDS: THE CONCERT SCENE Heatons, McEvoy, Gaelic Storm top lineup By Sean Smith SpeciaL to the BiR Performances by Boston/New England acts Matt and Shannon Heaton, Lissa Schneckenburger and Annalivia, the return of popular Celtic rockers Gaelic Storm, and rare appearances by Connie Dover, Eleanor McEvoy, and The Wa- terboys highlight Irish/Celtic concerts in the Boston area this month. The Heatons’ “Back to School” concert on Sept. 17 in Harvard Square’s Club Passim combines, in typical fashion, traditional songs with whimsy. The Gaelic Storm performs at Boston’s Wilbur Theater on September 12. husband-and-wife duo will perform selections from their still-in-formation CD project, “Tell You in Earnest,” which Shannon describes as “all-dialogue bal- lads – narratives and stories that are each like a two-person play.” Playing on the beginning-of-school-year theme, the Heatons will add a pedagogical dimen- sion to the proceedings. “We’ll set it up like a classroom, with a school bell, school supplies and a whiteboard,” explains Shannon. “And each song will be used for a different subject, from math to English to driver’s ed, and we’ll figure out what we’ve all learned together.” There’s a more meaningful aspect to the show, though, she adds. “The folk tradition is so much bigger, so much older than us, and yet it remains relevant. We’re focusing on the notion that ballads can teach us some universal, enduring lessons, and we in turn can teach other in this community.

    Bill Whelan, Globalising Irish Music UCDscholarcast Series 1: (Spring 2008) ________________________________ The Art of Popular Culture: From ‘The Meeting of the Waters’ to Riverdance Series Editor: P.J. Mathews © UCDscholarcast UCDscholarcast 1 Bill Whelan, Globalising Irish Music Bill Whelan Globalising Irish Music One of the duties an author, performer or composer undertakes when travelling around the world in advance or in the wake of a production is to face the media. Such has been my experience with Riverdance. Sitting in stuffed rooms in Sydney or Seattle or stretched on soft settees in say, Stockholm, I have been asked an amazing array of questions. Over the thirteen years of the life of this show I have been rendered mute by questions such as (in London): ‘how many pairs of tights does Riverdance go through in an evening?’. That one gave me some pause for thought, but not as much as the question I was asked in Tokyo when we first went there. Through an interpreter a Japanese journalist probingly inquired if I felt that the album Ó Ríada sa Gaiety was an important influence in changing the course of Irish traditional music. These kinds of questions have demonstrated to me over the years the variety of responses that people have to what was actually the same musical or theatrical experience. To progress a bit further on the theme of artistic intent versus audience response—in France I recall a press conference where a few journalists were pushing me to interpret Riverdance as an Irish Nationalistic cultural response to years of British domination.

  • Brussels, 2008
    Press contact: Aurelia Leeuw FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE [email protected] +32 (0) 2 511 44 54 www.authorsocieties.eu Creators tell the Commission enough is enough Pedro Almodóvar, Charles Aznavour, Andrea Bocelli, Daniel Buren, Ennio Morricone, Alejandro Sanz, Albert Uderzo and over 1000 other creators urge the Commission to properly address the transfer of value taking place at their expense online. Brussels, 11/07/2016 - The Commission finds itself under increasing pressure from the cultural sector following letters sent by recorded songwriters and musicians, branch organisations and now authors and creators from all artistic sectors. This latest letter, signed by some of Europe’s most important cultural exporters and influencers, urges the President of the European Commission, Jean-Claude Juncker, to quickly find a real solution to enable a fair sharing of value on the Internet. Today, Internet giants argue that copyright obligations don’t apply to them and hide behind safe harbour exemptions to avoid paying creators and rights holders fairly. It’s not just major pop stars or the music sector at large that is under threat because of this; it is the entire creative ecosystem made up of composers, authors, directors, screenwriters, photographers, sculptors, painters, etc. “The dominant players on the market, like YouTube, are platforms built on user uploaded or aggregated content that don’t or only barely provide remuneration for our work” says the letter, warning that “this pulls the entire market value of creative works down in a never ending race to the bottom.” GEMA member, songwriter and Scorpions singer Klaus Meine said that “the Commission cannot afford to miss out on this opportunity to tackle the biggest challenge of the decade.

  • The Point Festival 2013
    The Point Festival 2013 Following the success of last year's Point Festival 2012, the Green European Foundation Carnsore Summer School returned to the same venue in Co. Wexford, Ireland. The Summer School took place from Friday 23rd August until Sunday 25th August 2013. The theme for this year's event was "Jobs, Democracy and Europe – The Failure of Politics?". The venue in Carnsore was the site of many large anti-nuclear protest events in the late 1970s and 80s. It is seen by many as the birthplace of the environmental movement in Ireland. It was fitting therefore that Summer School opened by commemorating the 35th anniversary of the first anti-nuclear demonstration in 1979. Nuala Ahern (Chair of Green Foundation Ireland) officially opened the Summer School and chaired the first session held in the festival marquee. Guest speaker was Seán McDonagh who spoke about his recent publication "Fukushima – The Death Knell for Nuclear Energy?". A Question and Answer session then followed and most of the debate focused on nuclear energy issues in Europe. One memorable quote from Seán was: "It takes 200,000 years for plutonium to stabilise…...with no permanent repository for nuclear waste". After the first session, delegates were entertained by comedian Abie Philbin Bowman who presented his new routine "Terrorist Weather". Abie treated the crowd to many new ideas on how to win the Climate Change debate. The evening concluded with live music from The Submersibles. The theme for Saturday was "Why employment isn’t working?". The morning opened in the festival marquee with an address by Marina Barbalata, GEF Project Manager, who talked about the work and operations of Green European Foundation.
