join Danish male choir Rød Aalboys for an evening of song, laughter, and Scandinavian tradition in the beer garden at John Lee’s Bar & Venue, Tullamore on Wednesday, July 15 at 8pm. Free entry
Known for their powerful harmonies and lively performances, Rød Aalboys brings a unique blend of Nordic folk and "snaps"*-songs as well as traditional and modern Irish favourites with a hint of Scandinavia.
The repertoire of Erin's Isle includes - but is not limited to - The Rocky Road to Dublin, Fields of Athenry, the Parting Glass and Danny Boy, whereas the Danish songs are best familiarized on the spot.
