Rebel Celebration of Irish – Mexican music

MichaelKerin and Tinker Duffy, are both masters of traditional Irish music. They will help celebrate the role of the San Patricios, a battalion of Irish Immigrants who, in 1847, fought for Mexico against a ruthless invasion from the United States.

The duo, just back from a string of music festivals will happily play with harper, Andy Rigby, as well as Mexican and Cuban dancers, in Brian Hungerford’s production of “The War of Shame”. It has a selection of some of the most poignant Irish and Mexican music ever to come out of any conflict.

Michael has played with all forms of music making. He has played lead violin with orchestras, folk groups and spent three happy years touring the world with Slim Dusty. The pair make a powerful combination. Tinker will have you wanting to dance and cry at the same time.

The War of Shame will be presented in the St James Uniting Church Hall, Curtin.

Saturday 29 March at 6.30 for 7.00 pm. 

Mexican, Spanish and Irish supper will be available.
