SUMMARY:Nortons First Bottomless Brunch
DESCRIPTION:Nortons Goes Bottomless!\nWe’re launching our first Bottomless Brunch with the fabulous Heed on Saturday 19th October! You’ve all been asking for it (even those of you who haven’t)\, and due to the continuing inhospitable climate facing hospitality and our need to stay relevant\, we’re pretending to have reluctantly caved to popular demand\, abandoned all principles\, and given the people what they want. \nSo what’s the deal? \nBottomless Guinness (or prosecco) + Live music + any item from our breakfast/brunch menu! \nHow long is the bottomless for? \nIt’s two hours a sitting\, so you’ll have to prioritise whether the Full Irish Breakfast will slow you down\, or if you can handle all that bacon\, sausage and Clonakilty with a rake of creamy pints! We’re going to do two sittings every Saturday\, from 12 – 2pm and 2.30pm – 4.30pm. For the love of all good things\, please don’t book yourself in for two sittings back to back. We’ll all be bloody paying for it. \nWhat other dates are available? \nWe’re launching bookings for every Saturday\, from 26th October onwards in the next few days\, but for now we’re just taking bookings for the first ever\, one and only\, creamy pints\, covers and the craic bottomless brunch on Saturday 19th October! \n\nBook me bottomless!\n\n  \nWhen will other dates become available? \nDue to the frantic\, unorganised and catastrophic yet lovable nature of Nortons\, we can’t say when the rest of our Saturdays will go live\, but we’re working on it. We’re upgrading our booking software over the next few days\, so sign up to our bottomless mailing list below and you’ll get the heads up as soon as full bookings go live! \n  \n\n\n\n\nSign me up for bottomless priority!\n* indicates required\nEmail Address *\nFirst Name *\nLast Name *\n\nBirthday  \n /( dd / mm )

SUMMARY:Sean Keane
DESCRIPTION:Seán Keane  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSeán Keane from County Galway is described as the greatest musical find of the 90’s. Traditional Irish\, folk and even country and blues songs all lend themselves to his unique style and unforgettable voice. Growing up in a family of singers and musicians\, Seán learned the sean nós style of singing from his mother and his aunts. \n\n\n\nSinging was his life\, even in early childhood. By the time Seán reached his teens\, he had collected thirteen All-Ireland medals in Fleadh Ceoil competitions. He was by then an accomplished whistle and flute player as well and had taken up the uilleann pipes and bodhraun. \n\n\n\nWhen he joined his first group\, Shegui\, he had already served a long apprenticeship. After travelling throughout Europe with the band\, he left to join Reel Union\, a group which also featured sister Dolores and accordion player Máirtín O’Connor. Later\, he was part of Arcady\, with such well known names as Johnny “Ringo” McDonagh\, Sharon Shannon and Frances Black. \n\n\n\nSeán’s 10th solo album “New Day Dawning” is proving very popular with his fans. Seán continues to get much radio play with songs like “Isle of Hope Isle of Tears”\, “Galway to Graceland”\, “Home”\, and “Home Away From Home” still proving very popular with his listeners. New material like “Paint me a picture of Ireland”\, “Natures Little Symphony”\, “Don’t Teach Me How To Cry” and “One More Hour” are now becoming standards in his show.
