Chord Ennis International Music Festival Celebrating the cultural diversity of Ennis through a high-quality programme of musical events and an array of street events, Chord International Music Festival has a variety of musicians playing throughout the weekend of 5th-7th September including:

Sonia Esquivel- Bossa Nova/ Samba/ Latin
Together with her trio they are going to play a mixture of samba, bossa, nova, choro and other Brazilian rhythms creating an experience that is intimate and intense. Seating will be cabaret style so don't forget your dancing shoes.

Homegrown- Vertigo Smyth & Garthoga Sun
A Chance for the stars of Clare's indie firmament to twinkle. An evening of song, dance, fun, frolics, tears, laughter and happiness. Featuring Vertigo Smyth, he brings heart warming songs. Gargotha Sun on the other hand will focus on making a pleasant racket.

Saturday brings Aindrias de Staic- Around the World on 80 Quid. The Jimmy Cake are a spine tingling, shimmering, hypnotic, nine headed musical beast from Dublin. For the night owls, Festival Club is on from 11pm to 1.30am at Brogans Bar. On Sunday there is a Family Day with live music, face painting and more.
