The John Martyn Tribute Fest adds Cian Finn and James Yorkston

Some new additions and ticket news for the John Martyn Tribute festival.

First added on the list is Cian Finn who is working on his debut album, if the name rings a bell it’s because he was a founding member of the Irish reggae group Intinn. Also now on the list is James Yorkston, who is a singer and songwriter, who after sending a single to John Martyn to get one show, ended up on a 30 date tour.

So two great addition, making the full lineup James Yorkston, Cian Finn, Mick Pyro (Republic of Loose), Leslie Dowdall (In Tua Nua), Ultan Conlon, The Man Whom, Kevin Power, Rob Doherty, Deetrich, Mundy, Iarla Ó Lionáird, Jacqui McShee, Doug Morter, Philip Donnelly, Chris Campbell, Ben Mac Caoilte. More acts to come.

Special weekend tickets were released Sept 6th until Sept 12th for €40 so snap them up if you’re looking for a bargain. The John Martyn Tribute Festival takes place in Carroll’s Market Yard, Thomastown, Co. Kilkenny on Saturday 15th and Sunday 16th of September.
