Headliners Sessions kick-start 2009 with one of the biggest names in electronic music.
Darren Emerson will be taking control of the Dex @The Zoo Kilkenny as part of his Global Underground Tour.
The underground setting of The Zoo will be the perfect venue to showcase some of his new tracks that have been causing a stir around the world.
Darren Emerson is one of the most influential figures in dance music - after a career spanning more than 17 years and counting…
When Emerson was 18 he joined a band along side Rick Smith and Karl Hyde.
Smith and Hyde had been in a band together for several years and needed a new injection from a DJ/producer – in the form of Emerson - and the rest is… Underworld!
In 2000 Darren left Underworld to work on solo projects.
The first collaboration saw Emerson and DJ cohort Sasha produce the Ibiza classic - Scorchio, – a perfect accompaniment for Space on Sundays. Re-establishing himself as a tech-house heavy weight, two Global Underground compilations soon followed; Uruguay and Singapore and the hugely successful Underwater Episodes 1 and 2,
With such huge tracks as Scorchio and Born Slippy plus loads more under his belt and huge gigs such as Sensation White and Creamfields plus many more, it’s easy see why he’s in such demand.
Hedliners Sessions present Global Underground at The Zoo on February 7.
Doors open 8pm till late. Advance tickets from all Ticketmaster outlets nationwide.
