Muriel O’Connor and Fran Curry Celebrate a decade of success with a special recording featuring late comedian Brendan Grace.

After an incredible ten years of touring throughout Ireland and the UK, esteemed artists Muriel O’Connor and Fran Curry continue their musical journey with a series of festival performances and dance venue appearances.

In addition to their thriving music careers, both O’Connor and Curry are recognized as talented radio broadcasters and television presenters.

Their latest single is especially poignant, featuring a duet with the late and beloved Irish comedian Brendan Grace, who shared many cherished moments and stages with the duo over the years. 

Renowned for his comedic brilliance, Grace also possessed a beautiful singing voice and some years prior to his passing, he joined Muriel in the studio to record a heartfelt version of ''My Illusive Dreams''. 

This collaboration serves as a heartfelt tribute to their lasting friendship.

Muriel and Fran would like to extend their gratitude to Brendan’s wife, Eileen, for graciously permitting the release of this single in his memory.
