The great wordsmiths of Ireland, be they singers or storytellers, possess the power to put listeners faoi dhraíocht, “into an enchantment.” It’s a spell we willingly fall under. While we listen, when we laugh, when we join in with the singer or echo the words of the storyteller, we open up to the possibility of feeling more vital and resilient and open to the adventure of living.
As a scholar and teacher of Irish language and folklore, and as a singer and storyteller myself, I have witnessed firsthand the healing effected by traditional songs and stories. Some of these contain wisdom about how to get better – or to put it in Irish, teacht ar ais chugat féin, “to come back to yourself.” Others convey an essence that lifts us up and fosters wellbeing. I am excited to share with you some of these beguiling and restorative words, to teach you giota beag Gaeilge – a little bit of Irish – and to engage your own participation in the enchantment cure.

Kate Chadbourne is a singer, harper, and storyteller, an award-winning songwriter and poet, a scholar and teacher of Irish language and folklore with a PhD from Harvard, and a beloved performer at venues throughout New England. She has been honored as a “tradition bearer” in the Revels Salon series and in the Gaelic Roots Concert Series at Boston College, and her music has been featured on NPR’s programs, “Cartalk” and “All Songs Considered.”



She has released six solo CD’s, three collections of poetry, and has written two books to encourage and support artists, musicians, and creators. Named as one of “The Most Fascinating People” in Central Massachusetts by the Sentinel and Enterprise Newspaper, Kate is also the founder of The Bardic Academy, a school for writers, musicians, singers, and young scholars.



She brings to her audiences the sounds of the harp, piano, tin whistle, Irish flute, and melodeon, a deep love and knowledge of traditional Irish story, a warm and welcoming presence, and a voice often described as “the voice of an angel.”
