Between Two Countries book launch

Join me for an evening of music, stories, food and banter at Sharkey’s to celebrate the launch of my book, Between Two Countries: An Irish Boy From the Gorbals.

Sharkey’s Bar, Gorbals
Friday 20 November 2026
7pm

We’ll have live music from Paul Sheridan, with a guest hosting the evening, including a reading from the book, an interview about the stories behind it, and an audience Q&A.

There’ll be food on the night and plenty of time for a chat. 

The book brings together the Gorbals and Donegal through a story of family, childhood and belonging. I’m looking forward to sharing a bit of it with you, right here in the Gorbals.

A limited number of physical copies will be available to buy on the night, ahead of the wider print release planned for spring 2027. I’ll be happy to sign your copy, just come over and say hello!The Kindle edition launches the following day, Saturday 21 November.

Entry is free, but booking will be required.

Tickets will follow shortly, including an option to reserve a physical copy of the book to take home with you on the night.

Keep an eye on this event page for the booking link and updates.

Whether you’ve already pre-ordered, fancy hearing more about the book, or just want to come along for the music and company, you’re very welcome.

There’s no obligation to buy a book.

Bring your pals and help me celebrate.

Would be lovely to see you there!
