Saturday-11th October @ 8pm
Christy Moore’s music is iconic in Irish folk, known for his powerful storytelling, political edge, and emotional resonance, and Gerry Tully honours these qualities in his interpretations. The Meath based folk singer takes to the stage at Saint George's on Saturday, 11th of October 2025 @ 8pm lending his warm and emotive voice to Moore’s repertoire.
His smooth tone has an aged timbre and plenty of emotional texture in songs like Ride On or The Voyage. Moore’s songs feature simple yet effective guitar arrangements which Tully faithfullyrecreates with the same intricate, rhythmic style. This is particularly noticeable in songs like Black is the Colour or Nancy Spain, where his delicate touch on guitar enhances the emotional weight of the lyrics.
Gerry Tully has a long-held respect for Christy Moore’s songs, he doesn’t simply mimic them. Instead, he makes them his own. His interpretations are thoughtful, approaching each one with a clear understanding of its themes, whether it’s the political driven, Viva La Quinta Brigada or the wistfulness of The Cliffs of Dooneen, Gerry knows the music.
Tickets €25 available from the office at Saint George's Arts and Heritage Centre (087-4696913) Eventbrite (link below) or local outlets.

Friday, 14th November @ 8pm
Cork’s own Chris Kent makes his Saint George's debut- Friday, 14th November @ 8pm with a brand new show ‘Offline’. He tries to give up the internet and navigate life without asking his phone what to eat, where to go or how to get home. He longs for a simpler time of playing ‘Snake’ and constructing emojis himself. Now that he has hit 40 years of age, he wonders if he can ever go back to thinking for himself. Join him on a journey that will either make him or break him.
