Music Generation Clare is delighted to work with glór to present Julie Feeney in Concert, on Saturday, December 12th, 2015 at 8p.m.

Julie Feeney’s sell-out shows on both sides of the Atlantic have received rave reviews - whether solo, with ensemble, with choirs or with full orchestra - and she composes, arranges and orchestrates all of her own music. Her three albums have been widely, critically acclaimed internationally, receiving numerous awards and she has created a whole host of stunning music videos to accompany them. Her opera Bird goes into full production in 2017. Sharp witted, unpretentious and fiercely passionate, Julie Feeney is a genuine artist and a hugely enjoyable performer.  2015 saw her perform her own shows in Amsterdam, Mexico, Italy, all over Ireland and New York and she premièred her one woman show in Dublin which ran for seventeen performances. She is delighted to be back at glór.
