A NIGHT IN DUBLIN – STARRING THE DUBLIN LEGENDS
(FORMERLY THE DUBLINERS)
Irish
eyes will be smiling in Kidderminster in March 2026 when `A Night In Dublin` comes
to Kidderminster Town Hall - starring internationally renowned Irish folk and
ballad The Dublin Legends (formerly The Dubliners) - direct from Dublin,
Ireland.
The
night will aim to recreate a typical Irish sing-along pub atmosphere, with the
`resident` house band The Dublin Legends live on stage, singing all the classic
Irish songs. There will even be plenty of Guinness on sale at the Town Hall
bar!
Following the sudden death of The Dubliners
founding member Barney McKenna in 2012, it was agreed that The Dubliners, as a
touring band, would come to an end - and The Dublin Legends were born.
The Dublin Legends - Sean Cannon, Paul Watchorn,
Gerry O’Connor & Shay Kavanagh - have over 50 years of performing
experience between them with The Dubliners and Sean Cannon has been the lead
singer with The Dubliners for over 30 of them (taking over from the late Luke
Kelly in 1984).
The Dublin Legends will, of course, continue to
play all the classic songs and ballads known the world over: “Fields of
Athenry”, “Dirty Old Town”, “The Wild Rover”, “The Rare Auld Times”, “Molly
Malone”, “The Irish Rover”, “Black Velvet Band”, “Seven Drunken Nights” and
many more.
In the past five years the band have continued on
the legacy of The Dubliners by travelling far and wide playing concerts to a
whole new generation of Irish music fans.
They have wowed audiences in Iceland, Norway,
Finland, The Faroe Islands, Sweden, Holland, Belgium, France, Italy, Spain,
Austria, and Switzerland and all over England, Scotland & Wales. Such is
their continued popularity; the band have toured almost non-stop in the past
year.
The appearance of such an Internationally renowned
act as The Dublin Legends – they have performed in 12 countries in the past
year – confirms the Town Hall as an increasingly popular venue for major
concerts following the substantial improvements works over the past three
years.
This will be a full live concert by the Dublin
Legends (formerly The Dubliners). This is NOT a show or a TRIBUTE band. This is
the real deal!
