SUMMARY:Paula Ryan
DESCRIPTION:A Folk at the Book Tree event! Paula’s music is infused with Celtic lyricism and passion of her Irish Gaelic roots.

The concert will be in our atmospheric upstairs event space\, surrounded by the building’s old oak beams. \nDoors will open from 7pm\, and the performance will start at 7.30pm. \nAbout the Musician\nA unique voice in the contemporary folk world — Classic Rock Society Magazine \nPaula’s original songs have been successful in a number of high profile songwriting contests (e.g. Great American Song Contest\, Shrewsbury Folk Festival Peace Song Contest\, Pan Celtic  National Song Contest\, Tipperary Song Of Peace Contest). \nShe has shared stages with leading figures in Irish acoustic music including Lankum\, Liam O’Maonlaí\, Paul Brady\, Mary Coughlan\, Andy Irvine\, Daoirí Farrell\, Eleanor McEvoy. \nShe performs at a variety of venues and festivals nationally and internationally including Source Arts Centre (Thurles)\, Excel Arts Centre (Tipperary)\, Circle Sessions (Dublin)\, Limerick Acoustic\, Roisin Dubh (Galway)\, Matt Molloys (Westport)\, Ionad Culturtha (Cork)\, Edinburgh Fringe Festival\, Perpignan Festival (France)\, Barbican (York)\, Shrewsbury Folk Festival\, Beal Bocht Cafe (New York)\, Brown’s Diner (Nashville)\, Nacht Der Stimmen (Germany) etc. \nHer latest studio album\, Turas Cumadoir (Songwriter’s Journey)\, has earned airplay on RTE Radio 1\, Tipp FM and other radio stations throughout Ireland as well as in France\, Germany and across the BBC\, and received highly favourable reviews from leading folk/acoustic publications such as fRoots\, Acoustic Magazine and FATEA. \nAlbums like this are a rarity and a breath of fresh air when they come along – this one is a gem which anyone will enjoy — Irish Music Magazine Annual 2022 on Paula’s 2022 studio album Turas Cumadoir (Songwriter’s Journey) \nFind Out More\nFollow Paula on Facebook\, Instagram or TikTok \nRead more about Paula on her website \nListen to Paula’s music on YouTube
