Competition : Win tickets to Clonakilty International Guitar Festival

The 2012 edition of the Clonakilty International Guitar Festival strums into town in less than two weeks with more talented guitarists involved this year than you can shake a Fender Stratocaster at.

The ethereal tones of Iarla Ó’Lionáird, the mysterious musical maverick that is New York’s Thomas Truax, an Irish debut from New Zealand’s fantastical Tiny Ruins are just some of the awesome abilities on show over four days in west Cork.

Fortunately for you folks, The G-Man has some tickets to give away for not just one but two of these shows:

  • Friday 21st: Acoustic Forum featuring Rodney Branigan, Richard Gilewitz, Tiny Ruins and Steven Housden)

The winner will be announced on Monday, 17th September. Closing date is 11.59pm (or 23.59) on Sunday, 16th September.
