PRESS RELEASE: FLOOK announce one-off gig in BELFAST
As you’re undoubtedly aware, the musical phenomenon that was FLOOK
officially decided to call it a day in late 2008.
After much arm twisting however, they’ve agreed to play a one off
concert, as part of the biggest event ever to hit the island of
Ireland – the Tall Ships Atlantic Challenge (13-16 August 2009).
As the Gateway to the Tall Ships, Custom House Square in Belfast will
play host to a veritable feast of fantastic folk, trad, roots and
world music over the four day period, culminating in what is turning
out to be possibly the most exciting evening of traditional music this
year.
The ‘Titanic World Ceilidh’ runs from 8pm-12midnight on Sunday 16th
August and features Brian Finnegan, Sarah Allen, Ed Boyd and John Joe
Kelly (aka FLOOK!) PLUS very special guests.
Eager not to miss the chance to film this unique event, BBC Blas Ceoil
will be hosting the evening and also presenting a variety of ‘special
guests’. Contractually we can’t give you the details of who all those
people are just yet – but if folk, roots and traditional music are
your cup of tea, we guarantee you won’t find a more exciting line up
this year!
Tickets are priced at a recession busting £12 each and are available
from http://www.gotobelfast.com/tall_ships_belfast_2009/entertainment.aspx
