25th October 2015 at RADA Studios, London WC1.

Return to Camden Town Festival, www.returntocamden.org/.

Country: Ireland. Style: Traditional Irish Folk.

Lineup: Eleanor Shanley (v), Dave Sheridan (button accordion/flute/p), Padraig McGovern (uilleann pipes/whistle/concertina), Dónal Lunny (bouzouki/bodhrán), John McCartin (g), Edwina Guckian (dancer), Vincent Woods (readings).

This was the fourth in the series of performances under the title "Leitrim Equation" (the first took place in 2006). Like its immediate predecessor this one crossed the Irish Sea to be part of Return to Camden Town. For photos of no 3 see: www.flickr.com/photos/kmlivemusic/sets/72157637547232703/. While everyone on stage (apart from Dave Sheridan) was involved last time, this one was quite different. Fewer performers, both from Leitrim and outside the county (Dónal Lunny from Co. Offaly/Co Kildare was the only guest from elsewhere). More readings, mostly his own poetry, from Vincent Woods. Instead of a series of turns this time the music, dance, poems and back projected photography were weaved together to provide a narrative about Leitrim and its history. As well as at no 3 in the series I've previously taken photos of Dónal Lunny with Usher's Island (www.flickr.com/photos/kmlivemusic/tags/d%C3%B3nallunny/) and of Eleanor Shanley with De Danann (www.flickr.com/photos/kmlivemusic/tags/eleanorshanley/).
