Thread Name: Obit: Dolores Keane, Irish Trad. singer, 1953-2006
Subject: RE: 2026 Obit: RIP Dolores Keane
Frances Black, who had toured with Dolores, was interviewed on Radio Ulster news this evening about the singer. The last time I saw Dolores Keane she was performing in Derry, N Ireland with her younger brother Seán. She was in her sixties but seemed older, and her voice wasnt as rich as it had been. She remembered her songs okay and seemed to be enjoying herself. Seán seemed genuinely fond of and supportive of his sister. He did the second half of the concert on his own and Dolores came on stage again just at the end. That was probably the 2015 tour: https://audioboom.com/posts/3618193-when-mark-met-dolores-keane
