Delorentos will wrap up 2013 with a pair of live shows on December 21st – an afternoon acoustic set in the Unitarian Church, followed by a regular gig in Whelan’s that evening, before moving upstairs for a DJ set
Finishing off an incredible year, Delorentos announce a special, intimate and festive triple header in Dublin on Saturday 21 December playing fan favourites, exclusive versions and maybe even some brand new material!
Starting with a full acoustic show in The Unitarian Church on Stephens Green in the late afternoon, the band will move on to an intimate electric show in Whelans of Wexford Street and finish the night with a DJ set upstairs in the same venue.
After a dizzyingly great year in 2012 – that saw the band release their 3rd album, Little Sparks (Delo Records), to a hail of fantastic media reaction (and their 3rd consecutive Top 10 Chart Position), the band knuckled down to a touring schedule that saw them playing the length and breadth of Europe winning new fans every step of the way and climaxing with a sold out Vicar Street show just before Christmas.
2013 started with a bang and included the following hightlights:
- Winning the Meteor Choice Music Prize Irish Album of the Year
- Whipping their way through a whistlestop tour of North America (New York, Austin’s SXSW, Memphis, Toronto’s CMW) and Russia – from the sublime to the absolutely freezing!!
- Shows in Austria and France plus a swathe of major Spanish Festivals
- Playing at the President of Ireland’s Annual Garden Party
- Being invited to support Bruce Springsteen on the last show of his World Tour in Kilkenny
- Having a song featured on the new Richard Curtis blockbuster, “About Time”
- Playing their second sold-out show in Dublin’s Vicar Street.
- Recording their 4th album, due for release in early 2014
Tickets are availabe now, and you can choose between a 3 show bundle (Unitarian Church / Whelans electric show / DJ Set) for €25, or you can opt for the Whelan’s side of things only for €17.50
