With their fifth and latest studio album, ‘Into Your Heart’, Hothouse Flowers are planning to steal their way into hearts everywhere.

Recent years have seen them play festivals in Europe and take on concert tours across North America where Rolling Stone magazine once dubbed them ‘the best unsigned band in Europe’.

Bagatelle has been at the forefront of the Irish music scene now for over 40 years and have sold over five million albums worldwide.

They have shared a stage with icons such as Bob Marley, Van Morrison and Bob Dylan and are still in huge demand on the live circuit with regular tours in the USA, Europe and Asia.

Don’t miss this opportunity to hear all their well-known hits such as “Summer in Dublin”, “Is It Raining in Paris?” “Second Violin” and “Streets of New York”.

When Horslips released their first single - Johnny's Wedding - on St Patrick's Day in 1972 and followed it up with the album Happy To Meet, Sorry To Part that same Christmas they turned rock music in Ireland on its head.

The band's fusion of traditional Irish tunes with original lyrics and driving rock rhythms served them well through no fewer than twelve albums of which the best known are probably The Tin, The Book Of Invasions and The Man Who Built America.

By the time they finished touring in October 1980 the band - Eamon Carr, Barry Devlin, John Fean, Jim Lockhart and Charles O' Connor - had entertained an entire generation of Irish kids.

Don’t miss the chance to see John Fean live with his new band at Lush!
