In this workshop, young musicians will learn how to create and arrange songs with acclaimed songwriter and musician Niall McCabe. Get to experience the thrill of creating your own song and learn skills to help them writing in the future!
Admission to the workshop is free.
The workshop is open to young musicians from age 7 to 18 years, and all genres from trad, classical, rock, hip-hop and everything in between.
Having earned a reputation as one of Ireland’s finest singers and songwriters Niall McCabe has performed extensively with his Folk-Soul group The Niall McCabe Band over the past decade. Born on Clare Island, Co. Mayo, McCabe grew up in the family run pub awash with strong musical influences from traditional Irish and folk to rock and soul. It is here that Niall discovered his musical appetite and developed a style and voice that are unquestionably his own.
As well as becoming an accomplished finger-style guitar player, more recently Niall has been lending his unique voice to Irish trad-fusion band Beoga touring Ireland, Europe and the USA while also playing support for Ed Sheeran, Foy Vance and Johnny Swim.
