Ryan Sheridan and his full band, who just released the number one selling album in Ireland titled Here and Now, comes to play the Garbo's venue in Castlebar next Friday night, September 18. But that’s not all, local acts The New Social and Michael Oliver Sheridan have also been added to the bill in what promises to be a great night of music for the county town this September.
Ryan Sheridan leapt from the street to centre stage headline act in less than a thousand days. A gifted and inventive guitarist, he has combined his dazzling six-string skills with a jet-propelled percussive attack to create a unique sound that has thrilled packed houses from Dublin to Dusseldorf. A born entertainer, this passionate singer with a gift for storytelling is a commanding stage presence; and his acoustic-driven, anthemic, 21st century rock 'n' roll, with its roots deep in rhythm and blues, connects with audiences wherever he is seen and heard.
Ryan Sheridan's debut album, The Day You Live Forever, was released in 2011. Fuelled by the massive hits 'Jigsaw' and 'The Dreamer', the album was only kept from the top of the charts by Adele, and went on to achieve platinum status in Ireland. Packed arena shows with Taylor Swift, The Script and Bryan Adams followed, and Ryan's international reputation started to spread.
2012 saw deals done with Universal Music in Europe and Australia, and The Day You Live Forever climbed to the top of the German charts. Extensive touring followed, and much of 2013 was spent thrilling European audiences with his high-octane live shows, together with high-profile TV and radio spots.
Tickets for Ryan's much anticipated gig at Garbo's in Castlebar are now on sale and are available through Downtown Records and Hogs Heaven Bar in Castlebar, for further info visit www.finbarhobanpresents.com
