The 41st Cork Folk Festival presents Greenshine with Martin Leahy at Triskel Arts Centre on Friday 2 October at 7pm & 9pm. Tickets on Sale Monday 21 Sep 2020 at 10am!⠀
⠀
Greenshine is a Cork-based family trio comprising Noel Shine, Mary Greene and their daughter Ellie. Their material straddles the boundaries of contemporary, folk and roots and includes many self-penned songs. The band is known for striking family harmonies, excellent musicianship and the quality of their songwriting. Their singles, including ‘The Girl in the Lavender Dress’, ‘Dandelion Seed’ & ‘The Good is Gone’, consistently reach No. 1 on the RTÉ Radio 1 Airplay Chart (‘The Girl in the Lavender Dress’ was third most played Irish track for the year of its release) while their song ‘Brother’ (written with Cormac O Caoimh) from their latest critically acclaimed album Family reached No. 2. Family was recently made Album of the Week on BBC Ulster's Late Show and also on KCLRfm's Ceol Anocht and the band were named Euro American Chart's "Ones to watch".⠀
⠀
They have played live on Today with Miriam O’Callaghan, Today with Seán Ó Rourke and RTÉ's flagship Arts show Arena. Their music has been used as signature tunes on national radio shows and on ad campaigns for Folláin Preserves. Mary's song 'Meet Me In The Garden' was featured in Carrie Crowley's film Waterway. ⠀
⠀
A feature of Greenshine's set is their warm-hearted banter and song stories. Noel and Mary are much sought after recording session musicians and singers and have graced the recordings of performers as diverse as The Republic of Loose, Christy Moore, Dr. Strangely Strange, Mick Hanly and John Spillane.⠀
⠀
During the Covid restrictions on Live Music, Greenshine kept busy, producing two singles – Mary's first solo in many years, ‘All the Ones That Came Before Us’, which reached No. 2 in the RTÉ Radio 1 Airplay Chart, and Greenshine’s take on the Don Gibson classic ‘Sweet Dreams’, so beloved of Patsy Cline. ‘Sweet Dreams’ reached No.3.

#THROWBACKTHURSDAY⠀ One of the most famous Cork

#THROWBACKTHURSDAY⠀
One of the most famous Cork natives of the 20th century. Born in Shandon on August 15th 1917, he enjoyed considerable popularity in Cork as a sportsman and later as a politician. In 1939 he was the only GAA player to captain both the inter-county football and hurling teams in the same year. He entered into politics in 1948 as a member of Fianna Fáil. He went on to serve as Taoiseach from 1966-1973 and again from 1977-1979.⠀
⠀
It was during his first term as Taoiseach that he paid a visit to Christchurch on November 28 1970. This was part of a thanksgiving ceremony to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the current building. The then Taoiseach read the lesson at the ceremony ‘The Church is the people of God’ (First Letter of St Paul to the Corinthians 3:10-17).⠀

"For me, it was always about fear and desire, but particularly about the strange hinterland where the two meet. I was interested in the uncanny and a sense of dissolving reality." - director Claire Oakley⠀
