Mary Coughlan
NOTE: This is a standing event. Limited seating available when doors open 8:30pm. No reservations.
Gibneys are delighted to bring you a special performance by Mary Coughlan, a legend of the Irish music scene, with a beautiful, soulful voice cut from the blues and jazz genres that she has lived in for the past 3 decades and more of her career.
Throughout over 35 years of her quite extraordinary recording career, Mary has drawn heavily from her legendary heroes; Billie Holiday’s grievous, teary outpourings, the husky flirtations of Peggy Lee, Van Morrison’s soulful wails, the defiant chanteusery of Edith Piaf.
All are present and correct in her delivery. Even so, Mary, with her naked honesty makes every song her own; they belong to her and nobody else. Who else could possibly present “The Double Cross” or “Magdalen Laundry” or “The Ice Cream Man” with such dedication and effortless zeal.
