Albert Lee & Hogan’s Heroes
Saturday 26 May @8pm
Tickets: €20
Described by Eric Clapton as “the greatest guitarist on the planet” Albert Lee is undoubtedly one rock’s most respected musicians and requires no introduction to guitar aficionados and country rock fans alike.
Emmylou Harris, The Everly Brothers, Dolly Parton, Eric Clapton, these are just some of the artists Albert has collaborated with throughout his career. A double Grammy award winning musician, Albert’s talents as a performer, musical director and writer continue to be in demand by both his fellow musicians and audiences around the world.
Albert is joined by Hogan’s Heroes, a band made up of some of the most talented musicians working in Europe today. The band was formed by their namesake Gerry Hogan over 20 years ago, specifically to back Albert, and they have played together regularly since their formation. Hogan’s Heroes have the kind of collective résumé most musicians could only dream of with previous credits including Paul McCartney, Pulp, Van Morrison, Elkie Brooks, Huey Lewis and George Harrison to name but a few.
Mermaid is delighted to present this special night for those who love great music; Albert Lee and Hogan’s Heroes promises to be one to remember.
