Singing around Tralee/Kerry?

I just moved out to Tralee from NYC, and I'm looking for a place to go singing -- from my last stint in Ireland, I know of two weekly singers' circles up in Cork, but it's a bit far for a regular trip. Anyone have a lead?

They have had recent events in Tom Crean's pub in Annascul...mg

Going back about 10 years... so may not be going on now. There was a pub in Tralee town that had folk nights. I remember seeing a band called Glenfolk there. The pub had a lock in, and was oppositea taxi firm who would happily stay open until the pub let you out at (around 1a.m.) . I think it was called Kellys.

So my new musical home is Joe's Place, on Pembroke St. in Tralee -- every Wednesday night they have a really laid-back singing-and-playing session. It wasn't easy to find, either; most of the pubs with "sessions" meant they had unplugged trad concerts. Was I spoiled by living in Cork?

Hi megan
I was in Tralee a couple of years ago and went to a session in a pub called Sean Ogg's. Maybe the regulars there could help, although it reads like you have found what you are looking for.
cheers
