Event Description
Join us for a vibrant cultural evening at Murphy’s Restaurant, Gorey, where music, poetry, and storytelling come together in a celebration of creativity.
Live Music will be provided by Jazz Token. Based in Baltinglass, they have been playing together for six years now. They play jazz standards and instrumentals from the swing era to the nineteen sixties with a more modern flavour – from Cole Porter and Duke Ellington to Horace Silver and Sonny Rollins! Listen to some famous songs and to some of the stories behind them, or even dance to the beat of a classic jazz combo.
Frank Gallagher – vocals & guitar
Rory Adams – vocals & piano
Máirt Hanley – bass
Christy Stapleton – drums
Spoken Word & Poetry Lineup
Mick O’Callaghan, author of The Boy Who Kicked the Nun and creator of A Rambler’s Blog, will contribute poetry and story.

Margaret Sherrif, contributor to Sunday Miscellany, will captivate her audience with storytelling, rich in wisdom, transporting her audience to a different time.
Hosted by Aidan Murphy and the warm team at Murphy’s, this evening promises to foster connection, creativity, and culture in a welcoming setting.
