The sound of this session has been immortalised forever with the release of a CD recorded live there in October 09. “Live at Maddens” showcases some of Belfast’s finest traditional musicians, singers and dancers, all of whom play regularly in this great music venue. Produced by Donal O’Connor, the album features a collection of artists ranging from internationally renowned acts, to local talent, both young and old, with contributors including Barry Kerr, Shane McAleer, Alan Burke, Ruadhrai O’Kane, Ryan O’Donnell, Brendan O’Hare and many more.
