Roscrea Heritage Society welcomed Carmel Minogue for a fabulous evening of music in the Blackmills complex in Roscrea recently.

Carmel is a singer, harpist, guitarist, and heartfelt songwriter whose music is deeply rooted in her Roscrea heritage.

Growing up in a home filled with music where both her parents sang and encouraged her love of song, Carmel began performing from a young age and went professional at just 17.

At 18, she made her television debut on The Late Late Show, and later toured internationally with the renowned Galway Comhaltas group, completing two worldwide tours.

She spent a decade living in the US, expanding her musical palette and performing widely before returning home to Ireland.

Her music has featured regularly on Tipp FM, and she has played across a range of stages from lively pubs to sacred ceremonies.

Carmel’s sound blends Irish ballads, Celtic melodies, folk, country and bluegrass.
