Some of the finest musicians from the Celtic world are gathering in the west of the Island today (Wednesday).

 

Yn Chruinnaght runs until Sunday at the Centenary Centre in Peel and nearby community venues and pubs in the town.

 

There'll be indoor and outdoor performances from musicians, singers and dancers, including Welsh stars Calan, Cornish singer-songwriter Kezia, Ruth Keggin, Dublin’s folk miscreants Lynched and Manx bard Stacey Astill.

 

Organising committee member, Breesha Maddrell, says there should be plenty of energy, attitude and talent over the next five days.
