FUAIM Concert - Ger Wolfe - 28/02/25, 1:10pm, Glucksman Gallery

FUAIM returns to the beautiful Glucksman Gallery for this week's Friday lunchtime concert featuring none other than the gifted and much-loved Cork singer-songwriter, Ger Wolfe. Please join us at 1:10pm for a solo concert of works from Ger's new release, Songs from Freeman's Ballyvourney Collection.
A gifted songwriter, weaving strands of traditional and contemporary folk music harmoniously together, Ger Wolfe continues to be a gentle and consistent voice on the Irish folk-roots scene, his singing a pure joy. Complete with guitar, fiddle, banjo, shruti-box and a bag of other surprises, Ger takes to the road in Spring 2025 with a new release, Songs from Freeman’s Ballyvourney Collection, his tenth full album since the debut, Word and Rhyme, recorded on reel to reel by Ray Barron way back in 1995.
The concert presents Ger’s unmistakable voice and intricate guitar picking, in a magical set including his well-loved Curra Road, a ‘classic of grace and simplicity which should become a folk standard’ (The Boston Globe), Standing in Doorways (featured in ‘Other Voices’), Hello Gorgeous, She Scattered Crumbs, The Lark of Mayfield, and of course a range of songs from the new album: Aislinn Geal, a different take on Fáinne Geal an Lae, and other gems Ger has worked on over the last seven years from this store of traditional song of Gaeltacht Múscraí, where Ger has lived and worked for many years.
Be prepared for a musical journey taking in the old and the new and led by one of our most mellifluous larks.
