Michael O’Dempsey & Celine Filbee
Michael and Celine are very old friends and if you are fortunate enough to get to one of their rare performances, you can tell. The ease with which the two write songs, play and sing together is cemented by decades of collaborating both on and off stage, in their lounge and even on the side of the road in a Christchurch street. Long ago they were flatmates, they are funny together, honest with each other, as an audience you will feel connected and engaged in their comradery. They first played together in the UK in the 90’s as part of the acoustic folk act Something Going On led by O’Dempsey. You can expect to laugh at their humour, be stunned by beautiful ballads penned by Michael and be toe tapping to their groove.
