The QUEEN of Howth Roots and Blues is BACK!
Mary Stokes has played our festival every year since it's inception and the crowds coming to see her grow bigger each year. After the closure of the outdoor Tramiline Stage we are moving to the new venue at the Summit Inn for this festival triple bill 'Women In Blues'.
The Mary Stokes Band are Ireland’s foremost Blues Band, over 25 years established international reputation, performing with Blues Greats - John Lee Hooker, BB King, Taj Mahal, Bo Diddley, Fats Domino, Buddy Guy & many more. Partners Mary Stokes and Brian Palm (probably the best harmonica player on these shores) have led The Mary Stokes Band, performing at Blues Festivals & venues across Ireland, USA and Europe. The Mary Stokes Band includes the sensational guitar player Sarah Michelle (who features on our festival poster this year), with powerhouse rhythm section Zamo Riffman on Bass and Jay Oglesby on Drums.
