Renowned balladeer Chris Kavanagh was, quite literally, raised on songs and stories in his Dublin home. From the tender age of three, his Grandmother instilled a great love of Irish folk songs in him, and he has been singing and playing music ever since. Chris is well known for his successful show “The legend of Luke Kelly”, which has taken him all over the world, and in 2011 he performed with folk legends “The Dubliners” on their German Tour, where he received rave reviews. Chris and his fellow musicians will once again grace the stage in the TLT to perform all the greatest Irish folk songs & ballads. This promises to be an unforgettable night of music and song performed by Ireland’s leading balladeer. 'The first time I heard Chris Kavanagh singing, I rejoiced. Here, at last, again was the real thing, a genuine Irish ballad singer, who did justice to the songs. He wraps himself around the songs and gives them their full integrity as stories, sung with the kind of vibrant interpretation the songs deserve. His voice is rich and his performance is vibrant and utterly enjoyable. - Shay Healy
