Tonight, right here in the Parnell Quarter we have a brilliant night of live music lined up at The Poor Relation! We are delighted to welcome the incredibly talented Stuart Wilde to the stage. 🦅✨

Catch him live at 10PM 🎸

Based in West Cork, Stuart is a truly unique independent artist, singer, songwriter and producer. His music is dark, heartfelt and deeply poetic. The performance will take you on a journey through songs that range from thunderous to tender, all populated by rich stories of lost love, shadow worlds, dirty dishes and crows.
