- **Event Name**: Fireside Sessions Presents CATHERINE McCRYSTAL + Rory Shaun - Toales - Fri 09 Jan - Starts 9.30PM
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 09 Jan, 2026 at 09:30 pm
- **Event Description**: Throughout January, Fireside Sessions broadens its scope and takes up an extended run at Toales, turning the venue into a regular home for acoustic and stripped-back live music. Taking place every Thursday, Friday and Saturday, the series presents a carefully curated programme of original performances from local and national artists, all within the close, attentive atmosphere the Sessions have become known for. Admission remains free throughout the month.

As part of this January programme, this week’s spotlight falls on Catherine McCrystal, a Northern Irish singer and acoustic guitarist whose warm, expressive voice is steeped in the traditions of American folk, country, and bluegrass. After more than 15 years honing her craft on stages at weddings and live events, she’s now embracing a new chapter—stepping forward as a solo artist with a set that blends heartfelt originals and carefully selected covers, delivered with confidence, nuance, and genuine emotional depth.

Sharing the bill, The Fireside Sessions welcomes back singer/songwriter Rory Shaun, who really impressed a packed Toales at his last headline show last year, showcasing his alt 90's-inspired songwriting and personal, introspective lyrics.

Staying true to the ethos established in previous Fireside Sessions events, the night places original music front and centre, offering audiences a relaxed, welcoming space to engage with artists up close as part of the wider January run at Toales.
