Robert Mizzell remains one of the busiest artists on the county scene in Ireland.

The Louisiana native has a hectic schedule of dances and major concert shows ahead for the rest of the summer. Plans are also well advanced for the Robert Mizzell Country Music Festival which will be staged in Lisdoonvarna from Friday to Sunday, 28-30 August.

Robert and the Country Kings will be on stage on all three nights, headlining the big weekend.

Among their guests will be Hugo Duncan, John Hogan, Michael Collins, TR Dallas, Paddy O’Brien, Tony Marren, the Lisdoonvarna Showband, and others.

Patrons who intend to travel to the west Clare town for the festivities can avail of the special packages put in place by Showtours.com, who are coordinating the venture. They are reserving places in the Hydro, Imperial, Burren Castle and King Thomand hotels. For more details, check out their website or call them on 094-9255000.

Robert is also in the process of recording a new concert album for Dolphin Records, which he hopes to have ready for release later in the year. He also hopes to lead a contingent of supporters on a trip to Nashville in 2016.
