Carmel
Dempsey is one of Galway's best-known musical performers - a distinguished
musician, a talented singer, with a great sense of humour- possessing
all the necessary characteristics of a truly great Entertainer.
She
hails from a family with a strong musical tradition and started
entertaining at an early age. Her mother recalls that she was humming
'Silent Night' before she could talk. Later, while studying languages
at U.C.C. and U.C.G., she continued to entertain in piano bars,
clubs and other musical venues.
As
a solo artist in the late 80's Carmel played support to many international
acts including 'Meat Loaf' and 'Leo Sayer'. She then went on to
tour with some of Ireland's best known bands including 'De Danann'
and 'The Dolores Keane Band'. She also toured with the Druid Theatre,
one of Ireland's most successful theatre groups.
Carmel
now works with a network of very talented
musicians from the Galway area and can therefore customise her shows
to suit the occasion.
Carmel
has entertained for as few as 7 corporate guests in a private drawing
room to large audiences in concert halls and at outdoor festivals.
To
date she has entertained on all 5 continents. In addition to her
extensive repertoire of songs in English, her program includes songs
in French, German, Italian, Spanish and Irish.
