Cursed Murphy versus Jerry Fish
<p>Jerry Fish has been many things: a stadium rock god, a carnival barker and showman, entrepreneur, label owner and bandleader. He made his mark touring the world and recording three albums with An Emotional Fish, and after years of hard graft, music business machinations and good and bad luck, he formed his own band (and label) the Mudbug Club, releasing two platinum-selling albums, Be Yourself and The Beautiful Untrue, that combined roots music, torch songs, film atmospheres and brassy swagger.</p> <p>These days the name Jerry Fish is synonymous with festivals, carnival sideshow, circus and theatre. Most recently, Jerry was asked by Tom Gimbel, the late Daniel Johnston’s manager, to put on a show to celebrate 'Hi, How Are You Day', inspiring new conversations around mental health issues. The show was also marked by the release of Jerry's version of Johnston's masterpiece 'The Story of An Artist'.</p> <p>“I grew up in London,” Jerry once said, “but my family, my two great-grandmothers... I looked up the 1911 census, and they were neighbours. I’m from the river. I’d say if you went back far enough I’m just an amoeba that crawled out of the Liffey.”</p> <p>This episode of Cursed Murphy's podcast was recorded live by Dan Comerford in front of an invited audience in Wexford Library, and was produced with the support of Wexford Arts Department, Wexford County Council, and Wexford Library.</p>

Cursed Murphy versus Annemarie Ní Churreáin
<p>Our guest: Donegal-born poet, writer and educator Annemarie Ní Churreáin</p> <p>Annemarie’s first book Bloodroot, published by Doire Press in 2017, was shortlisted for the Shine Strong Award for best first collection in Ireland and for the 2018 Julie Suk Award in the US. She's the recipient of numerous literary fellowships, including a residency at the Jack Kerouac House, Orlando. In 2016 she was the recipient of a Next Generation Artists Award from the Arts Council of Ireland. The following year she was appointed to the Writers In Prisons panel co-funded by the Arts Council and the Department of Justice, Equality and Reform. She is currently Writer in Residence at the National University of Ireland, Maynooth.</p> <p>Of her work, Dr. Sinéad Kennedy of the Department of English in Maynooth has written: “Ní Churreáin bears witness to the lived experiences of women, including those Irish women who for too long have been overlooked and silenced; women like Ann Lovett, Joanne Hayes, and the many nameless, disregarded women who lived lives of imprisonment within Irish Institutions.”</p> <p>This episode was produced with the support of Wexford Arts Department, Wexford County Council and Wexford Public Library, and was recorded in front of a live audience by Dan Comerford.
