Suaimhneas translates as peace/ calm/ tranquility and that is exactly the vibe we try to create at these events with low lighting , soft furnishings and a chilled out soundtrack to help you relax and forget about the stresses of everyday life. The two artists that share tonight’s bill are Sammy Copley and Caoilfhionn Rose

Caoilfhionn Rose

Manchester’s Caoilfhionn Rose has come of age as an artist, digging deep to find experimental new ways of expressing her wonder at nature’s beauty, her love of music in all its diversity, and her belief in the restorative powers that both afford in the troubled post-COVID world. Vigorous, searching and ever-curious, Caoilfhionn has found a voice at once ancient and modern, intrepidly exploring contemporary technology to transform traditional songcraft for the mid-2020’s.

Caoilfhionn’s music is rooted in a knowledge of folk, jazz and all the twentieth century’s classic tunesmiths, and seems to create a magical, otherworldly space of her own imagining, blending Caoilfhionn’s core piano with synths, and pitting a live rhythm section and saxophone embellishments against ambient samples and future-facing production techniques.

Sammy Copley 

Dublin-based singer/songwriter Sammy Copley has grown up in a self-made spotlight. Inadvertently documenting his growth as a storyteller and a performer through weekly uploads to YouTube, his channel has almost a quarter of a million subscribers, releasing his first full-length body of work, the majestic Growing Pains in 2021. Pouring emotion into his soothing folk-inflected ballads, Copley shared more of his stories with theLittle BoxEP culminating with sold-out shows in London and Dublin.
