Castlemagner Sinsir Club Celebrates A Night To Remember at Fundraising Concert

Castlemagner Community Centre was alive with excitement last Thursday night, as the Sinsir Club hosted a successful fundraising sitdown concert featuring renowned West Cork musician Patrick O’Sullivan, his son Conor and drummer Keelan McGowan, The Sinsir Club would like to express their heartfelt gratitude to all who attended and supported the event including their local sponsors. This concert was a crucial fundraiser for the club’s latest project, the production of their much-anticipated CD, How Can I Keep From Singing?. The recording has been in the works since last Easter, with members practising under the expert guidance of tutor and conductor Maria Twomey Hinchion. However, this project has always been about

more than just the music. It has been a journey of connection, fostering a sense of togetherness and belonging through song. The camaraderie, laughter, and shared cups of tea—and not to mention the delicious home baking— created a warm, joyful atmosphere that sustained participants through the summer months. Each week, they looked forward to coming together, proving once again that singing nourishes not only the mind but also the spirit. Now, with the final touches completed, the official CD launch will take place on Tuesday, December 3rd, at 8pm in the Castlemagner Community Centre. Everyone is invited to celebrate this momentous occasion. “Admission is free, and CDs will be on sale for €20 each, with a complimentary USB stick included.
