Irish star Jessie Buckley will pay tribute to Sinead O’Connor with a special performance at RTE’s Culture Night.
The Wild Rose actress and singer, 33, commented: "I am very honoured to return to Culture Night 2023 to remember Sinéad O'Connor with the RTÉ Concert Orchestra. Sinéad was such a huge influence on so many women in Ireland and across the world, her courage, her mind, her politics and her intense beauty and soul."She was a warrior to humanity. I remember hearing her for the first time and feeling her uncompromising need to connect and affect.
In the shadow of Mount Errigal, at a stunning lakeside setting in Dún Lúiche, the RTÉ Concert Orchestra and a host of guest performers from the worlds of post-punk, R&B and indie rock will present a unique feast of music. Over the waves on Oileán Árainn Mhór off the Donegal coast, leaders of the Irish folk revival Ye Vagabonds will perform on the shorefront amphitheatre, where they will be joined by performers including Mairéad Ní Mhaonaigh, and Nia Ní Bheirn. Choreographer, former Riverdance lead and Gaoth Dobhair native Breandán de Gallaí will perform a commissioned dance filmed on the island with his dance company Ériu.
