Here comes the summer and with it some exciting news for Dominic Kirwan fans.
The Omagh entertainer, who is celebrating 25 years as a professional entertainer, will present a handful of very special shows in July and he will be joined by his son Colm again as he returns from Nashville.
The Dominic Kirwan summer shows are pencilled in for Newcastle in Co Down on July 23 and the Great Northern Hotel in Bundoran the following night ahead of a weekend of shows at Omagh’s Silverbirch Hotel in his hometown of Omagh on July 25 and 26.
For many, the inclusion of Dominic’s son Colm will raise the blood pressure, an accomplished singer songwriter in his own right Colm returns to Ireland for a brief tour after several years mixing with and writing with the cream of US country writers in Nashville.
Colm was most recently on tour with Don Williams throughout the US and his ‘Keltic Country’ is proving hugely popular.
Dominic’s love of Irish dance will also be revived when he welcomes the Baxter school of Irish Dancing on stage for the Bundoran show.
Hundreds of Dominic’s fans will converge on Omagh on July 25 as he hosts his annual weekend.
This year Dominic will be joined by Louise Morrissey, Johnny Brady and of course son Colm.
While the event will bring fans from throughout the UK and beyond to Omagh, all the shows are open to the public to pay on the door on the nights. Dominic and his guests will also come along to the Main Street complex in the town on the Saturday afternoon for a singalong and shopping in the town centre.
To celebrate the summer, Dominic, busy in the studio preparing a very special 25th anniversary has released ‘Mending Fences,’ a classic up tempo love song, the release is available on iTunes and is receiving plenty of airplay.
Kirwan hopes to have that new album on the shelves this Autumn with the bulk of the recording already completed.
