In Concert: The Legendary Ingramettes

Picture

​Sunday, 18 September | 4pm
St. Brigid's Church
​€15 (children free)

Six decades of music, 65 years of song, generations tied together through force of matriarchy of powerful women. This is the story of African-American gospel quintet The Legendary Ingramettes, founded by Maggie Ingram (who passed away in 2015) as a way to keep her family together through hardship, and taken up by her daughter Almeta Ingram-Miller as a way to continue Maggie’s legacy. Inspired by the black gospel male quartets of the 1940s and 50s, The Legendary Ingramettes bring roof-raising harmonies and explosively powerful vocals, all driven by the voices of women.
Recent award winners of a National Heritage Fellowships awarded by the National Endowment for the Arts the Legendary Ingramettes continue to blow audiences away with their performances of Gospel Music. Described as ‘electrifying’ performances, all the way from Richmond, Virginia US, they perform their first Irish concert here in Portumna at Shorelines.

​A live show from The Legendary Ingramettes is a house-rocking affair, with audiences literally getting whipped to a gospel fervour.

“Obviously gospel is religious music … but it really goes beyond that. It’s about connection. …with people in a way that I’ve never seen another group do.” Jon Lohman
