Oh, happy day indeed! I’m very excited to announce that I have joined Gerry Simpson’s Augustinian Gospel Choir on a permanent basis!
The concerts last week in the Barbican theatre in Drogheda were very successful. It was a fantastic production and my inbox was full of messages from everyone who enjoyed the experience!

I enjoyed the concerts and rehearsals so much I couldn’t bear the thought of parting ways with the choir after the shows last weekend. I got such a lovely, friendly, positive energy every time I was around the members of the choir! Chancing my arm, I offered my services of alto vocals and my offer was greatly accepted with open arms! I attended my first rehearsal as an alto last Tuesday and there I received the warmest welcome from everyone.
I have been aching to take part in a music production for a long time, I’m so excited!
Today we performed at the Annual Mass for Road Traffic Accident Victim’s in the Augustinian Church, Drogheda. I was playing bass again alongside Alan Barton on drums, Gerry Simpson on piano, backing up the choir. It was a very beautiful and touching Mass.
I will be announcing further performances in the near future!
