Sara Corkery is a guitar player who was mentored both classically and acoustically by legendary guitarist and producer Declan Sinnott.
As a young girl she became greatly interested in the fingerstyle playing of Doc Watson and the mandolin tunes of Bill Monroe,which nurtured in her a love of 'old timey' folk music and has greatly influenced her own stlye.
Sara was a member of the Cork based female vocal quintet 'The Joyful Mysteries'for many years.Since then Sara has been playing nationwide gigs,but recently has teamed up again with X-'Joyfuls'member Aine Whelan.
Together they have recorded their debut album 'Dont Mind the Rain'which was released in February 2009.
We’re doing a music & punk poetry mash up night with ‘Wasps vs Humans’ this coming Thursday 11th Feb upstairs at the Roundy on castle street. It’s free, so if you’re around, come along!
welcome to the gypsy carnaval!!on thursday the 14th january,come and dance to lazik,txutxukan and DJ mayakovsky to beat the winter blues with some balkan power!!!witness the intermingling of these three fantastic entities from 9pm-2am...
Sara. Wasn't yesterday extraordinary? What an impressive and wonderful unit that family is. It was so sad yet so uplifting (except your man with the collar who made the big sermon...but that's just my opinion and he didn't take from the beauty). I wonder would I have the same strength in the same situation, I hope I never have to find out. love, mary
All going well here. The weather hasn't been great so it hasn't been too busy every night at the restaurant but going really well otherwise. Will keep you updated when the season kicks in :)
I am very very pleased with myself at the moment as I have uploaded songs for the first time onto myspace..Both of these tracks are taken from the album with Aine Whelan and I hope you give them a listen. .Good comments always welcome.
