Hello there,
Sylvie will be in Dublin 10th - 12th October, 2014 - to be part of the No Idle Day festival, presented by Young Hearts Run Free, an arts collective in Dublin, that have been putting on interesting music and literature events in unusual spaces, since 2008 - raising money for a homeless organisation, the Simon Community.

Sylvie will be part of a discussion on Friday 10th at the National Concert Hall about music with Bill Drummond, Johnny Rogan, Jonny Trunk, and various others - https://www.nch.ie/Online/No-Idle-Day-Festival-10Oct14

and the following evening, 11th October, at City Assembly House, she will be discussing her work in more detail, and her music, Leonard and more, the evening will also feature Johnny Rogan and some Irish musicians -

I'll be bringing my ukuele, so on Saturday 11th I'll also be singing - some Leonard Cohen songs and maybe one or two of my own. Coincidentally, the producer of my upcoming album - Howe Gelb of Giant Sand - will also be performing in Dublin that day at a different show, and we're trying to work it out so that he can jump in a cab and get to me in time to do a late-night song together! I'd love to meet Leonard Cohen's Dublin fans - of course I've heard great things about the lot of you! - so try and come if you can, the proceeds go to a good cause (and not me!!!) and I'll be happy to sign any books you might want signed. Thanks!

Just a reminder to people in Ireland that Sylvie will be talking and performing this Saturday in the lovely surrounds of City Assembly House on South William Street, Dublin (opposite Grogan's pub).

Also talking about music and writing on the same evening will be Johnny Rogan, author of books on the Byrds, Van Morrison, Morrissey/Marr and many others.

Hope to see you there!
