Longford is a quiet county for trad, but the sessions that do run are well-attended — the county's central location on the Shannon corridor means musicians pass through regularly.
Lough Ree marks Longford's western boundary, and the lakeside pubs at Newtowncashel run sessions in a setting that makes other counties jealous. The county town's session circuit is smaller but dependable — and the mid-week nights are where the serious playing happens.
at Farrell's Bar · Longford Town, Co. Longford
Longford's most dependable mid-week session. Wednesday nights in a town pub that keeps the trad flag flying even when the county is otherwise quiet.
at McKeon's · Newtowncashel, Co. Longford
Lough Ree shoreline pub with Sunday afternoon sessions. Slow and traditional — the lake view through the window and the music inside are genuinely competing for attention.
