Today is International Womans Day.
One of the longest running traditional music sessions is in Charlies bar every Sunday at pm. The session is hosted by Cork's own Sean O'Driscoll, both a sweet and rhythmic banjo player and a fine hand on the old style button accordion, along with his wife Mary O'Driscoll on the fiddle. To keep the session fresh and real, each Sunday features a different guest musician, an ever changing array from some of Cork's and Ireland's finest traditional players.It is equally popular with musicians, listeners and tourists with Sean keeping the session friendly and fun but also making sure to keep the music swinging. You never know who will turn up for a few tunes, for the chat and the laugh, to sing a song or just to listen and have a few pints. Its never dull.Click for more info..
