The Mystic Irish Parade Film Festival

The Yellow Bittern,
The Life and Times of Liam Clancy

Running time: 110 minutes

Tickets $10* available at:
• Mystic Independent Theater
• Puritan & Genesta in Mystic
• and now ONLINE at: http://mysticindietheater.tix.com

*Ticket purchased online with a credit card require an additional small processing fee.

Through the kind efforts of film producers Anna Rodgers and John Murray we bring you a new feature documentary from director Alan Gilsenan: The Yellow Bittern, The Life and Times of Liam Clancy. The Yellow Bittern is a revealing and surprising portrait of Liam Clancy of The Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem, and the man that Bob Dylan called “just the best ballad singer I’d ever heard in my whole life.”

This intimate, confessional and highly cinematic film charts the remarkable rise to fame of these devil-may-care Irish singers, from their small-town beginnings in County Tipperary in Ireland to the folk hey-day of Greenwich Village in the Sixties where they absorbed black musical influences, played for JFK and out-sold the Beatles.

Aoife Clancy

Aoife Clancy comes from a small town called Carrick-on-Suir in Co Tipperary Ireland. She is the daughter of Bobby Clancy of the Clancy Brothers and grew up in a family steeped in music.

Her performance will include family songs along with stories of her upbringing in Carrick-on-Suir and Ring Co Waterford where her mother is from and also where her uncle Liam Clancy resided.

Aoife Clancy is one of the brightest lights in fusing traditional and contemporary Celtic and American music. She is a former member of the popular Cherish The Ladies. Now with seven recordings under her belt in the last decade, Aoife has clearly established herself as one of the Divas of Irish and contemporary Folk Music.
