Orbsen survive another Sligo Choral Festival

Orbsen, returned from Sligo late on Sunday night / early Monday morning bruised, hoarse and a tad hungover from another eventful trip to the annual Sligo Choral Festival!

The group performed several times over the course of the weekend, everthing from mass to cabaret! The boys came second in their competition, while we performed a new fusion of a She moved through the fair and a Breton song!

Well done to the new members who travelled for the first time with us, John Aisling and Ursella!
