Clonakilty International Guitar Festival
On Friday, 19th September, Knockskeagh had the privilege of welcoming back three past pupils to perform a full set of home-written songs. as part of the Clonakilty International Guitar Festival. Muirne, Lillia and Tess formed their band when they were in 6th Class in Knockskeagh and have continued to grow in their musical strengths over the last few months. 🎶
The girls kept the whole school entertained with their set, which included their own written songs, while playing a mixture of instruments, including the guitar, piano, drums and ukulele. 🎵
We were very honoured to have the girls back and we look forward to seeing them more and more over the coming years.
Knockskeagh are very proud of you! 😊
