Ann will be headlining The Workman’s Club in Dublin on Sunday October 16th to co-incide with a Killerman remix EP for Halloween. The EP will include remixes by Karl Odlum, Colin J Morris and a mysterious hooded figure called HellOh and will be available via bandcamp on Oct 31st.

Currently back with a band and shaping up for her 4th studio album, this show will be Ann’s only headline gig this year, so expect a mix of old and new. Line-up will include Karl Odlum, Dave Hingerty, Gemma Hayes and guests tbc. The Workman’s club is a lovely new-ish venue just beside the Clarence Hotel along Wellington Quay. Special guest opening will be the fantastic Joe Chester.

Also Ann will be playing a more intimate gig in the Town Hall Theatre in Dungarvan next Sunday Oct 2nd as part of a new festival: Storytelling Southeast. For this one Ann will be accompanied by Kim Porcelli on cello and keys. Start time 7pm sharp.

Ann is among a number of Irish musicians who’ve contributed to a charity single to help raise funds and awareness around the struggle and injustice faced by Magdalene women in Ireland. These women have been dispersed all over the world after escaping horrific institutions in Ireland, the last of which only closed in September 1996.

The track is Julie Gold’s From A Distance and features Sinead O’Connor, Tomy Flemming, Moya Brennan and more. Reproduced by John Reynolds, all money raised from the track will go towards building a National Monument in Ireland to commemorate all Magdalene’s.
The single is available online now from Tesco, iTunes, Amazon, HMV and Virgin.
