Jim returned to Ireland in 2017 and performed all over the country with Gerry Quigley, Brian Hyland and Sharon Quigley.

Gerry Quigley and his band 'the Shinkickers' are from Cork city, Gerry plays an assortment of stringed instruments, Sharon Quigley on keys and Brian Hyland on bass, It was a real blast working with Gerry and Brian,

I thank Gerry, Sharon and Brian for giving up their Summer to work with me and I feel very privileged to have been on stage with them all.

Unfortunately Gerry has other projects in the pipeline for this year, but i am hoping to be able to get Brian in for a few shows when available.
