A “KICKING” 7-PIECE BAND PERFORM THE TIMELESS “STRANGE MAGIC” OF E.L.O.
The much anticipated arrival in Kilkenny is finally upon us! The Show features all the classic hits such as ‘Evil Woman’, ‘Showdown’, ‘Livin’ Thing’ & ‘Mr. Blue Sky’, performed fully live by the band inclusive of 6-part vocal harmonies and a string section to add that authentic classical sound!
With stunning visuals and videos that will blow you away! The band features some of Dublin’s incredibly talented musicians, including Shane O’Reilly (Bipolar Empire), guitar hero Joe Mullins, and the Butler family, known widely across Ireland and the UK for their creation and production of the touring show “The Live Last Waltz”, which features in Dublin’s Olympia Theatre bi-annually.
This 7-piece live band are dedicated to performing the music of Jeff Lynne, known as the creator of ELO and producer to many world famous acts such as George Harrison, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty & Roy Orbison to name a few. This outstanding list of musical colleagues also lead to the formation of “The Travelling Wilburys”, in which Jeff Lynne also featured as a member. “Showdown” The E.L.O. Experience has been a resounding success in venues throughout Ireland and the musicians are thrilled to bring the show to the Set Theatre!
