Camross Comhaltas shines as Rose of Tralee visits Coolrain
I’m sure the visiting Rose of Tralee Elysha Brennan won’t mind us saying here that the Meath lady was almost upstaged on her visit to Laois. The proud Royal County lass was taken aback by the startling musical talent on show from the local young members of Camross Comhaltas on the occasion of her visit to Sheeran’s of Coolrain.
