With our continued growth and success, ISQ is pleased to announce
we have secured the services of Lindsay Wood from LAR Events
to act as our manager. Lindsay will be in charge of all aspects
of the business including PR, marketing, administration and has
agreed to make herself available to take calls from clients (when
it is more convenient for them) between 6:00pm – 8:00pm,
Tuesday to Friday.
ISQ has teamed up with one of Ireland’s biggest vocal talent’s
Ceara Grehan. We are very excited at the prospect of working with
one of the best known singers on the Island. Ceara’s has
a wealth of experience in musical theatre and tremendous versatility
as a performer. We are currently in rehearsals with her and will

ISQ announces, with the addition of the Ulster Orchestra’s
Principal Bass, Gareth Hopkins; the formation of the ISQ Café Orchestra.
With a playlist containing waltzes, tangos and much, much, more,
ISQ Café Orchestra re-creates the atmosphere, panache and
sophistication of high society soirées synonymous with many
Hollywood movies, most notably ‘Scent of a Woman’.
