The centre is situated in the heartland of East Clare, on top of the famous Hill of Tulla, an area renowned for traditional Irish music, song and dance. The name Cnoc na Gaoithe translates in English as the Windswept Hill, made famous by the late Kerry man Bryan MacMahon in his song “Lament for Tommy Daly” in praise of the great Tulla and Clare goalkeeper, Dr. Tommy Daly

Fergus Bogue will launch his debut solo C.D. Díreach ón gCroí at Teddy Griffins Bar, Tulla on Sunday 19th May at 6pm. Fergus is joined on the C.D. by his sister Mairead on fiddle, Gerry McMahon on guitar and Gearóid McNamara on piano. The proceeds of the C.D are being donated to the Babies in the Bush Orphanage, Hammenskraal Dinokeng and Butterfly for Change Day care crèche which Fergus visited with Ceoltóirí Chnoc na Gaoithe during our trip to South Africa for St. Patrick's week celebrations. This is a wonderful generous gesture by Fergus and a really worthy cause. Please support The Babies in the Bush by coming to the launch and buying this C.D. Here is a taste to whet your appetite, Fergus and Gearóid playing a few tunes🎼🎵 ... See MoreSee Less
