Night of Music with Donal O’Connor & Matteo Cullen

Donal O’Connor

Having spent his working life as an Environmental Health Officer he has recently retired and lives with his wife in the shadows of the Curlew mountains in North Roscommon. Despite working full-time he made space over the years to record three albums of original songs, tour the Folk Clubs of the UK extensively, tour Germany on a number of occasions and performed occasionally in Spain, USA, Australia and New Zealand. 

He is an avid vegetable gardener, enjoys travel and cycling (that’s cycle touring and not the multi-coloured lycra pounding the hard shoulder type of cycling!). He has recently completed a solo cycle form Achill, Co. Mayo to Auschwitz, Poland.

Matteo Cullen
