Cork musician Mick Flannery is coming to The Source for an intimate solo concert

Mick Flannery is a popular Irish singer and songwriter who will roll into Thurles for a gig on Wednesday May 8th. His debut album Evening Train resulted from his time spent studying music and management at Coláiste Stiofáin Naofa in Cork.

It featured tracks which had previously won Flannery two categories at the International Songwriting Competition in Nashville, Tennessee.

His most recent offering 'Goodtime Charlie', Flannery's eighth studio record went straight to No. 1 at home in Ireland on the independent charts and No. 2 on the Official Charts, making it his sixth top 5 record to date and with three Number 1 records already under his belt. 'Goodtime Charlie' is also the first international signing for John Prine's beloved Oh Boy Records.

Mick Flannery’s songs are fluent in expressing layered aspects of the human condition, its flaws, triumphs, and general uncertainty. His live shows are renowned for his self-deprecating humour, audience engagement and the ability to bring people on a journey of both heartbreak and joy, often in the same instance.

“Mick Flannery has a voice for the ages, he is a complete Master of his craft” - cited Clash Magazine, whilst The Sunday Times said he “conjures up exquisite storytelling.”
