He has compiled gig listings for all Sligo musicians and venues, for free, for years.
The Sligo Stream Festival will take place on Friday 23rd to Sunday 25th October with some of Sligo’s finest musicians streaming LIVE to various pubs Facebook pages. All gigs are sponsored by and in aid of The Neurology Support Centre, which is a Sligo charity supporting those with neurological illnesses and their loved ones.
