One Horse Pony are back to play the Glebe Gardens Summer series on Sunday 16th July in Baltimore, West Cork.
Experience original Alt-Roots and stompin' Blues rhythms from Ireland’s deep south.

"‘Blue When I Go' is a must-listen." – Hot Press Magazine
"We thought we were at church!" – Jimmy Carter, Blind Boys of Alabama
"This is an amazing live band."- John Creedon, RTÉ

Chart toppers and roots virtuosi One Horse Pony are veterans of Electric Picnic, the Guinness Cork Jazz Festival, the Kilkenny Roots Festival, Indiependence and more, they've shared stages with musical royalty such as The Blind Boys of Alabama on their travels.

The last 12 months have brought multiple television appearances, a critically acclaimed European tour, a show-stopping performance on the main stage at Townlands Carnival and a raucous debut headlining the 7 Hills Blues Festival.

Celebrating their own original roots music, One Horse Pony showcases acoustic virtuosity and potent vocal harmonies allied to brain-melting high-octane mayhem, for live shows which have to be seen (and felt!) to be believed. Check them out on iTunes, where their single "Staring Blues" hit No. 1 and you can download a copy of their latest album, "Blue When I Go".

A musical magpie whose mature, self-affirming songs display an unusual emotional breadth, Wallis defies categorization. The Irish artist has paid her dues, shredding her fingers and breaking string after string from the sheer force of playing on stages small and large across Europe, and throwing her entire soul into each performance with a level of energy that makes her an unassailable force of nature.
This is Wallis Bird, an unpredictable artist who chooses her own path and beckons us to follow.

A special night of collaboration.......

Tonight The Vespertine Quintet & Lonely and the Moose will Join together for a specail night of music!

Lonely and the Moose is made up of Liz Clark and Tessa Perry

Liz Clark, hailing from the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, is a trans-atlantic, wandering songstress. Tessa Perry, a local from Baltimore, is an un-hurried and haunting folk singer. Both performers, with respectable solo careers of their own over the last 10 years, joined voices and forces while meeting in New York City in 2005- the melting pot of all lonely-hearted artists- forming Lonely And The Moose. Since then, using their natural instincts of collaboration, they've performed on both sides of the Atlantic from small coffeehouses and venues to sold-out concert halls, opening for the likes of Ani Difranco, Damien Rice, The Indigo Girls, and The Counting Crows. Now they have settled here in Baltimore together and are raising their two children.

The Vespertine Quintet is five west cork musicians (made up of traditional string quartet and piano, with additional electronics, voices and other quirky instruments). Earlier this year they launched their eagerly anticipated first record, 'Before a new harbour can be built, difficult things must be worked out'. 
The quintet began as a way to get through a particularly dark West Cork winter, hosting house concerts and playing the lush and ethereal music of Icelandic composer Olafur Arnalds and Estonian Arvo Pärt. They have collaborated with musicians such as Liam Ó Maonlaí, Farewell JR, Paul Tiernan, Adrian Crowley and Camilla Griehsel and many more over the last three years.

The Loafing Heroes return to us this summer after their wonderful performance last winter

The international band The Loafing Heroes are a cosmopolitan blend of folk, poetry, world music and pop, a tapestry of lush harmonies and contemplative lyrics. They have just released their fifth and most complete record called The Baron in the Trees which draws upon influences as eclectic as the members themselves, with haunting ballads giving way to smoky jazz numbers and then to dreamy folk song—tales of loss and rediscovery, of isolation and transformation. Their previous albums (Crossing the Threshold, Planets, Chula and Unterwegs) are a product of their years in Lisbon and Berlin. The band comprises of Bartholomew Ryan (vocals and guitar) from Ireland, Giulia Gallina (vocals, piano and concertina) from Italy, Judith Retzlik (violin and trumpet) from Germany, and Jaime McGill (bass clarinet) from the USA.
