The GSPCA wish to say a big thank you to Shay Leon for donating a hundred of these special CDS called 'SEAN AGUS NUA EAGSULACHT' for our building fund.
The CD is very special as it represents all the different styles of music now heard around Galway.
You can get a preview and more info about the CD at www.seanagusnua.com.

From Irish to South African to Jamaican. Having heard it, I can say it is a beautiful CD and a must for any collector.

You can buy the CD at our shop on St Augustine St. for €10. So it is a purrfect gift for your loved one.

Shay's Studio started about 6 years ago as a one room project studio. Today it takes a full house with 2 live rooms, control room, and a grand piano. The studio records all genres from traditional music to metal."
For more information look up www.shaysstudio.ie

Our pictures show Kalie showing off the CD, and committee member Daniela Zervanova, Shay Leon, volunteer Aoife Scully with cats Kali, Raftery (who is blind) and Hadley.

Jackie Hayden, Hot Press, 16 June, 2007 - Review Sean Agus Nua
There's probably no mention of masturbation on the 16-track compilation Sean Agus Nua, celebrating the musical variety available these days in Galway. The excellent Lonneke Godjin joins with accordionist Steve MacSuibhne for "Ach Vaderlief", a cute Dutch folksy tune, "Cher Che Moi" by Baslowa is a gripping sample of Congolese Rhumba, and "Bazaar Rumours" by Alale is a mongrelisation of Spanish, Irish, Indian and Greek folk styles. An intriguing collection that also contains contributions from Hungarian, Ukranian and Filipino acts, this is a more compelling mix of music from many nations than that bloody Eurovision.

Monty ...read A Tribute to Monty on In Loving Memory.

We featured Monty’s (Paddy) story in ‘my GSPCA pal’ and it is with deep sadness we tell you our boy Monty has walked over ‘rainbow end’. Sadly and in spite of all Viv and her vet could do Monty’s cancer was fatal. He was a wonderful little man and taught us all a lot in how we should deal with both 2 and 4 legged who are that little bit different. I had the pleasure over the years of meeting up with Monty and Viv on their trips west and saw the difference Viv made to Monty’s life and how much Monty with love and understanding and patience from Viv had come on. We in the GSPCA are so grateful to Viv for giving Monty a great life and a happy life. Monty has been all over the place from Clifden to Belfast to Wexford and indeed one of his last outings was to a protest on ‘Save Tara’ and where he and Viv formed part of the harp. Viv we know how you are feeling and are so happy that Mont got to spend his last wonderful years with you, you were and are his guardian Angel sent to save our little man. We have great memories of him and his wonderful little quirks that made him so special. We know he is with our motley crew and that they are all healthy and having a ball in heaven and are now our special angels.
