Paddy Schmidt has been a permanent fixture on the Irish folk scene for decades. Known as the charismatic frontman of "Paddy Goes To Holyhead", he also delights audiences solo with his raspy voice, tongue-in-cheek humour and handmade music straight from the heart of Ireland.
His solo programme thrives on spontaneity, closeness to the audience and stories between the songs that are just as entertaining as the music itself.

At the Südanleger, Paddy Schmidt presents pure Irish folk - honest, direct and with a good dose of Irish charm.
