Tower Singers’ Session

The Tower Singers’ Session is a regular cultural gathering hosted at the Tower Inn in Elphin, Ireland. Serving as a monthly vocal circle, the event brings together local performers and visitors to share songs across a wide range of musical styles. The session is designed to be inclusive, welcoming participants of all skill levels and genres in a social pub setting.

The August 30, 2026, session continues a tradition of community music-making at the venue. These nights are known for their welcoming atmosphere, where the audience is encouraged to listen even if they do not intend to perform. A sentimental highlight of the gathering often includes the singing of "Happy are we all together," a piece traditionally performed to close the evening and honor the memory of past regular contributors.

While the Tower Inn also hosts traditional Irish music sessions and junior sessions on Tuesdays, the Singers’ Session remains a distinct event focused specifically on the vocal tradition. It serves as a key social fixture for the Elphin community, offering both a creative outlet for singers and a public performance for the general community.
