Shamrock Tenors
2024 saw the Shamrock Tenors headline the BBC’s St Patrick’s Day coverage across the entire UK and Ireland, with the launch of their debut concert special on BBC2 and BBC4, and went on to sell out their West End debut at the Adelphi Theatre in London’s West End. Later in 2024 the special will have a National Pledge Release on PBS across North America which will be followed by the groups debut North American Tour.
This year also saw the Shamrock Tenors headline their first ever Irish national tour. Starting with a sold out show at the Grand Opera House in Belfast, they continued to sell out the entire tour months in advance, including a return to the Grand Opera House for another sold out performance.
Their first two singles have shot straight to number 1 on the iTunes World Music Charts, whilst their performances online have received over 7 million views. They’ve traveled to over 30 countries as a group, including Irish festivals in the USA and sold out shows in iconic venues such as the Ulster Hall, Belfast, and Birmingham Symphony Hall, England, and sang to over 20,000 people in Trafalgar Square, London.
So grab a drink, sit back and get ready to be transported to the Emerald Isle. Irish music as you have never heard it before!
