<h4>A Halloween Gig</h4>
<p>Dublin born singer and composer, Rachael Lavelle will perform at An Taibhdhearc this Thursday night, after a star turn in Cumasc Season One on TG4, as part of her autumn tour.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Her debut album ‘Big Dreams’, released via her Rest Energy label, has cemented her place as one of Ireland’s most exciting emerging talents. The album received a nomination for Ireland’s prestigious Choice Music Prize Album of the Year.</p>
<p>‘Big Dreams’ is an introspective journey that invites the listener to ask what it means to be alive in the 21st century. This coming-of-age album chronicles the journey of a young woman searching for direction and meaning in a very strange world.</p>
<p>Inspired by sounds of everyday life and an intriguing obsession with YouTube self-help videos, the album explores romance, directionless-ness, ambition and the expectations of the unsatisfied digital native.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Recorded in various locations between Ireland and Portugal, the album is the result of years of experimentation and destruction.&nbsp;</p>
<h4>Black Gate Cultural Centre Fundraiser</h4>
<p>The event is organised by the Black Gate Cultural Centre, who are in their final days of a bid to raise funds to re-open at their new venue.&nbsp;</p>
