Raglane Entertainment is proud to announce Grammy award-winning music legend Nanci Griffith in Wexford Opera House, Thursday February 11. Whether performing her own poetically evocative material or the compositions of her influences, friends, and peers, Nanci Griffith possesses a powerful gift for inhabiting the songs she sings - for communicating unspoken intimacy and heartache through her tender voice and lilting, delicate phrasing. Her live performances on her Irish tour will feature all her best- known and best-loved classic songs plus tracks from her latest release The Loving Kind.

Nanci Griffith's musical journey has taken her from folk and country roots, to her own brand of "folkability". From Austin's Hole In The Wall bar to New York's Carnegie Hall, Nashville's Grand Ole Opry to London's Royal Albert Hall, Nanci has entertained worldwide audiences. Griffith has penned such classics as Gulf Coast Highway (duet with Emmylou Harris and Willie Nelson), Love At The Five And Dime and Outbound Plane. In turn, Nanci was the first to record Julie Gold's Grammy winning classic From A Distance. She has also been honoured with five Grammy nominations, three as a solo artist (winning once) and twice for performances on albums by The Chieftains (winning once). Don't miss this unique opportunity to see the legendary Nanci Griffith in the wonderfully intimate setting of the O'Reilly Theatre.

Nanci Griffith appears for one night only in Wexford Opera House, Thursday, February 11 at 8pm. Tickets are €38.50 and are available online at www.wexfordoperahouse.ie or by calling the box-office at 053 912 2144. No booking fee applies.
