 Recently
returned from a 30 date tour of Germany, Switzerland and Denmark,
Zoë Conway is about to embark on an Irish tour. For this tour,
Zoë will be accompanied by guitarist, John McIntyre. He is
a member of the well known rock band, The Revs. He has toured worldwide
and has performed at festivals including Oxygen, Reading and Rockpalast.
John has a strong background in Irish Traditional music and has
also studied Classical guitar, providing the perfect accompaniment
for Zoe! They will perform in Monaghan, Galway, Cobh, Waterford,
Ennis, Dundalk, Dublin, Donegal and Cavan.
Zoë is a prodigious talent, equally at home in both traditional
Irish and classical styles. Her list of achievements belies her
youthful age as Zoë has performed across the globe, from Tel
Aviv to Toyko and from Bangkok to Los Angeles. She has performed
in some of the most prestigious concert halls in the world including
The National Concert Hall, Dublin; The Kremlin, Russia; The Kennedy
Centre, Washington; The Broadway Gershwin Theatre and Carnegie Hall,
New York, and she has also performed at festivals such as Glastonbury,
Tonder and Womad. She is a holder of the prestigious All-Ireland
Senior Fiddle Champion Title, and was recently voted "Best
Traditional Female of the Year". Zoë has played as guest
soloist with renowned orchestras including The Irish Chamber Orchestra,
The Ulster Orchestra, The RTE Concert Orchestra, Il Gardino Armonico
of Italy, and The Symphony Orchestra of Galicia in Spain. Zoë
has also performed with international acts, Riverdance, Damien Rice,
Rodrigo y Gabriella, Nick Cave, Lou Reed, Jarvis Cocker and Beth
Orton among others. To date, she has released two solo albums, Zoë
Conway and The Horse's Tail, both critically acclaimed, and her
live DVD is due to be released soon, Zoë Conway Live.
