Event Description

The Goodnight Irenes are a folk trio formed in Kingston, Ontario in 2016 featuring Al Duquette, Jon McLurg, and Chris Morris. Three singers, two guitars, one fiddle, and nearly 1000 songs! Traditional folk, blues, classic country, bluegrass, Western swing, Cajun music, fiddlin’ tunes … no rules, no limits, no setlists!

A Goodnight Irenes show is spontaneous and lively. You’ll hear songs by the Carter Family, Hank Williams, Woody Guthrie, Elizabeth Cotten, John Prine, Robert Johnson, The Grateful Dead, Bill Monroe, Ernest Tubb, and who knows who else. Only one thing is a constant: finishing the show with a certain Lead Belly song.
