Cosy Choir deliver magical night in Laois  for some good causes

Cosy Choir

The Cosy Choir delivered an unforgettable performance that left audiences beaming with pride and joy at Bloom HQ in Mountrath last Friday, June 20. 

Organisers hailed the event as a “super success”, bringing together community, music, and meaning in perfect harmony.

The evening began with a warm welcome and words of gratitude from Sinead Cooper, who acknowledged the many hands and hearts that made the night possible. Bernie Coss then took to the stage as MC, expertly guiding the audience through the evening’s rich musical journey.

The Cosy Choir filled the hall with breathtaking renditions of beloved songs, each performance more powerful than the last. A standout moment came when the choir’s president, Mattie Farrell, delivered a heartfelt solo of Lovely Laois, supported by the full choir. It was a deeply touching highlight that resonated with all in attendance.

With a sellout crowd, the evening also served a greater purpose, raising funds in support of the Laois Hospice and the Irish Guide Dogs—causes close to the choir’s heart.

The second half of the concert lifted the energy even higher, with the Cosy Choir blowing it out of the water and leaving the audience absolutely enthralled.

Guests described the event as “so special” and “purely magical.” Pride in the choir’s achievements filled the room, and the choir members themselves were visibly moved, sharing smiles and embraces as they walked through the crowds post-performance, soaking in the love and support.

For Choristers and the audience alike it was more than a concert—it was a celebration of community, a triumph of talent, and a night that will long be remembered. The Cosy Choir will be performing at the Laois homecoming event in September.
