(Dave
Monks)
Wear green for an evening jam-packed with
nostalgia and the most popular sing-a-long and clap-along Irish songs of all
time with the Rhumbelow Theatre Durban at its temporary location, St Cyprians
Church Hall.
Irish vocalist and multi-instrumentalist
Dave Monks presents Ireland's Call with
Dave Monks, an evening jam-packed with nostalgia and features the most
popular sing-a-long and clap-along Irish songs of all time.
A well-known and respected entertainer on
the South African music scene, Monks is an established gig artist having “paid
his dues” over the last many years. He has performed in almost every corner of
South Africa as well as Ireland, England, South Korea, USA, Portugal, Zimbabwe,
Botswana, Swaziland, and Abu Dhabi.
His proven repertoire of esteemed Irish
classics, mixed with a touch of the Blarney in his treasury of tales and
humour, are always sure to get hands a-clapping. The folky feel of the music is
accentuated by his mastery of the fiddle, banjo, guitar, harmonica, tin whistle
and vocals.
Of course, no Irish show would be complete
without the good old faithful’s like Danny
Boy, Galway Bay, Whiskey in the Jar, Paddy McGinty’s Goat, Delaney’s Donkey
to name a few but Ireland’s Call introduces
audiences to a whole new generation of Irish favourites plus a couple of brand
new Irish songs composed by Monks.
This family show is suitable for all ages.
