Music scene in Mojacar is quite good.lots of talented musicians and some great singers.Not too much irish music and if there is its usually made up of Wild Rover and Danny Boy.possibly an opening for some good trad.Give it a try and see where it takes you.

Hi,

May I suggest you have a word with David at The Irish Rover. Mojacar Playa ( on Google Search).Not sure if they would be interested but would certainly be able to better inform you than I.

Best Wishes,

Bob and Sandra

Hi Lindamay. It would be worth contacting Steve Hewlett, the owner of the estate agency VIP on Mojacar playa. He is an Irish gent and may well be able to help. I am a big fan of traditional music so please feel free to contact  me if you'd like to run through some. I am a piano player. In my youth I used to sing also.

Traditional Irish Music is required in Mojacar Playa like another famine is required in Ireland. There might be an opening or two during the high holiday season, but for the other 10 months you are almost certainly onto a loser. To be honest, I don't believe you will make much of an income with traditional Irish Music. Ballads, perhaps yes! 

You need a good plan. Bear in mind the unemployment situation in Andalucia is pretty bad.

Matthew is right.You need a plan.For good trad you need musicians.Cant do it on your own.There might be opening for Irish themed evenings with bit of trad,bit of poetry,some ballads and a bit of comedy,mullarkey and blackguarding.maybe the evenings of Irish sporting events.could keep customers on site.
