Gerry Hanberry presents a heartfelt talk covering fourteen well-known Irish love songs through the centuries. The discussion will include the stories behind such great contemporary songs as Thin Lizzy’s “Sarah,” Mick Hanly’s “Past the Point of Rescue,” Johnny Duhan’s “The Voyage,” as well as “Nancy Spain,” Mundy’s “To You I Bestow,” and many more. Gerry will explore the women who inspired these beloved songs and provide a deeper appreciation of their impact on Irish music.
