Cork Folk Festival: Ger Wolfe

Coughlan's

Thu 3rd Oct, 7:30 pm

A gentle and consistent voice on the Irish folk-roots scene, singer-songwriter Ger Wolfe has a subtle way of weaving his magical music into the heart of the listener.

Creating ‘carefully crafted vignettes of song’ to all who come to listen (Irish Times), including his well-loved ode to innocence ‘The Curra Road’ – a ‘classic of grace and simplicity which should become a folk standard’ (The Boston Globe)

Drawing from the wells of traditional and contemporary folk, Ger plays spirited and heartfelt music, all at once lyrical, melodic and poetic. Prepare to be bedazzled by his unmistakable voice and inimitable guitar playing.

Continuing to tour his latest and ninth CD “The Morning Star” featuring songs like ‘Hello Gorgeous’ and ‘When we were farming land’, Ger is currently working on a new release due for September 2024 –“Songs from the Ballyvourney Collection/ AmhrĂĄin Ăł BailiĂșchain BailebhĂșirne” with songs from a one of our most important collections of traditional song.
