CANCELLED: St Patricks Night: Ellen and Kevin Mitchell

Ukrainian Community Centre, 14 Royal Terrace, Edinburgh EH7 5AB

It's been a lifetime (literally - sometime back in the 1970's this writer believes) since Edinburgh FC had Kevin Mitchell grace our stage with his glorious voice. Since then Ellen, Kevin's wife, has joined him in his singing exploits with her own lovely vocal contributions from the traditional Scots canon.

Their repertoire also includes contemporary songs which they feel fit and derive from the traditional style.

Together they have now been performing the traditional songs of Kevin's native Ulster and Ellen's Scotland for many years. The duo have performed at clubs and festivals abroad, all over the UK and, of course, in Ireland.

Recordings Kevin: Free and Easy (Topic LP) "I Sang That Sweet Refrain" (Greentrax CD) Ellen: "On Yonder Lea" (Tradition Bearers series CD) Both: "Have A Drop Mair" (Musical Traditions).
