Charlie’s big Drogheda date
THE smooth sound of Charlie Landsborough is coming to the TLT on January 28.
Charlie is generally recognised and categorised as a country singer, however, as his fans will tell you, country music is only one part of his live shows and music catalogue.
Winner of ‘Best Songwriter’, ‘Best Song’, ‘Best Male Vocalist’ & ‘International Country Album’ Charlie’s talent and chart-topping records received the ultimate recognition in 2011 when he was inducted into the British Country Music Hall of Fame- a wonderful achievement for any artist.
This will be a memorable evening of beautiful ballads, folk, blues, country, rock ‘n’ roll, pop, gospel and anthems. Tickets from the TLT.
Keith Barry will amaze you
ACCLAIMED mentalist/hypnotist Keith Barry is bringing his brand new live show MAGIC MADHOUSE to venues across Ireland over the next few months beginning Thursday, 28th December in Castlebar. MAGIC MADHOUSE will see Keith returning to his magic routes which will bring audiences on a rollercoaster ride of laughter and madness while promising a death defying finale to leave spectators at the edge of their seats.
‘I’m very excited to hit the road with my new tour ‘Magic Madhouse’, it’s been 15 years since I performed ‘magic’ in my shows. The Madhouse will culminate with my most dangerous and daring escape to date which I have called Fatality. I will be manacled and chained into a steel straightjacket with a glass box locked over my head and filled to the brim with water. Will you be there the night I fail to escape Fatality?’ he stated.
He plays the TLT on Saturday January 6th.
