Singer, songwriter and fiddle player, Laura Cortese lights up the stage with a radiating smile, dazzling musicianship and uninhibited delight.

She deftly strums, plucks and chops her fiddle behind her raw and rootsy voice. On her latest release, 'even the lost creek', she couples the groove and polish of urban music with universal themes of the old world.

Forgoing the guitar and bass of the traditional rock band, Cortese tours nationally with indie rock/folk drummer Neil Cleary (Annie Hayden, The Essex Green, Erin McKeown). She plays tomorrow Thursday 1 May in the Crane Bar at 9pm. Tickets, €10, are available from The Crane Bar on Sea Road.
