Award winning Aidy Quinn and his six piece Band received many compliments from some of the biggest stars in Ireland today when he appeared at a star studded concert in The Carrick Court Hotel, Carrickmacross, Co. Monaghan on Monday October 1st in the presence of 2,000 people.

Claire Kerley and Northern Sound Radio invited Aidy to perform at the stations first major show and Aidy's Band had the honour of backing the many artists who appeared on the night. These artists included Daniel O'Donnell, Big Tom, Philomena Begley, Margo, Mike Denver, John Glenn, TR Dallas and many more. The capacity audience and artists all had great words of praise for Aidy's Band who ably backed the artists in at least four numbers each. In addition Aidy had the privilege of performing the Johnny Cash/June Carter duet 'Jackson' with his mum Philomena Begley.

During the night Daniel O'Donnell who made a surprise appearance at this unique evening made a special presentation to Big Tom.

Aidy and his Band had just returned from a very successful 11 day Scottish tour that included Orkney & Shetland Isles along with the Highland Region. This visit included a first appearance at the prestigious Northern Nashville CM Club, Thurso, Caithness that was sold out. He also took time out to visit some local radio stations and personally thank the presenters for playing his music and the listeners for requesting it. Already he looks forward to fulfilling the many invitations to return again when time permits.

Aidy is presently busy in the recording studio putting down his forthcoming album that is due out very soon. This album will have a good mix of music including songs that his fans have suggested as he enjoys a lot of time speaking with them and listening to their views. A promotional single taken from this recording session will be released in a few weeks.

Welsh fans and friends will have a unique opportunity to see and hear Aidy Quinn live for the first time when he appears at South Wales Music Festival, Trecco Bay Holiday Park, Porthcawl, Cardiff on Sunday November 18th in the company of Susan McCann, Furey Brothers and Davey Arthur and many more. Organisers are fast preparing this to be the first Annual Music Event at Trecco Bay Holiday Park.
