Revisit the music of the great Luke Kelly
On 30th January 1984 it is said that the whole of Ireland grieved the early death of Luke Kelly. He has left an incredible mark as being the greatest folk artist of the 20th Century.
In October 2001 a band formed to pay tribute to the king of balladeers in a show entitled ‘A Tribute to Luke Kelly’. It was launched in Dublin’s Hotpress HQ before an audience which included Luke’s siblings and relations and proved to be such a success that the band were booked for a three month residency at the Olympia Theatre.
The band have since amazed audiences following powerful performances in prominent venues. Lead singer, Chris Kavanagh bears a remarkable resemblance to Luke while his signing talent captures the depth and passion of the great man. He is joined on stage by accomplished musicians who all consider it an honour to bring Luke’s music back to the live stage. This is a concert not to be missed!
