Dave Monks presents an evening which is jam-packed with nostalgia and features the most popular sing-a-long and clap-along Irish songs of all time.

An Irish Party with Dave Monks will be presented at the Northlands Bowling Club in association with The Rhumbelow Theatre on Saturday (February 1, 2020).

The Irish vocalist and multi-instrumentalist will present an evening jam-packed with nostalgia and features the most popular sing-a-long and clap-along Irish songs of all time.

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 the audience’s hands 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 faithfuls like Danny Boy, Galway Bay, Whiskey in the Jar, Paddy McGinty’s Goat, Delaney’s Donkey to name a few but An Irish Party introduces patrons to a whole new generation of Irish favourites plus a couple of brand new Irish songs composed by Monks.

Monks has performed in almost every corner of South Africa as well as Ireland, England, South Korea, USA, Portugal, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Swaziland, and Abu Dhabi.
